Hi!

I just installed Fibotrader but am not able to run it. After the initial splash screen I run into the error message :"There were errors opening the database <C:\Program Files\Fibotrader\Data\Main.mdb>.(Catastrophic failure)".
When I ok it, I'm asked "Do You want to start the databank assistant?"
The following database screen returns the original error message and so on until I refuse the database assistant when the program shuts down.

I have unzipped and pasted your main.mdb, to no avail. I cannot get to the screen for manual database assignment.

So what am I doing wrong?

My OP sys is Win XP SP2. Attached : 3 screen shot clips

Update the indicator list.
1. open a chart.
2. Chart manager -> Add indicator -> More from internet.

Secondly as per your post no 23(4/6/06)Itried filter conditionc on SE(1037 items) but did not get any symbol listed.Then I tried only 4th condition(MACD will generate Buy in last 5 days) still no symbols were listed.Am I doing something wrong ? Pls advice.
The conditions should be arranged like (see the attachment: My Filter).
After searching the NSE folder(1038 symbols) with avobe conditions i have found two stocks : IPCL, Dhumpur Sugar.
And using only MACD buy (last 5 days) 44 stocks have been found(MACD Buy.filter). download it -> Filters -> import.

happy trading,
soumya

Hi Soumya,

Seems like we have a lot of Fibotrader users. Just a suggestion, maybe we can create a sub-forum like Metastock and share tips and tricks in Fibotrader !

Best Regards,
Ganesh

Hi! Soumya,

There is an indicator called "Support Lines"

The default value for periods = 100. What would be a good value for swing trading.

As in the past, I would be grateful if you could please help on this.

Thanks & regards,
Amit
