dear members,

Fibotrader for those who have not been able to purchase MS or AB.

Fibotrader is available as a completely free version. It is as strong as Amibroker. This has one limitation: The only data source available is the manual ASCII import.

As soon as the trial period of Fibotrader has expired, the program switches to the free mode automatically. Besides the data sources all other functions remain available without restrictions.

Tip: Software-Updates can be downloaded as usual through the AutoUpdate or from the website. This way you can always use the most up-to-date version of Fibotrader.

Some characteristic of Fibotrader is given below:
1. Powerful charting
2. Automatic strategy backtesting and optimization
3. Custom scripting
4. Portfolio management
5. Spreads
6. Watchlists/Alarms
7. Powerful filters
8. Multi-user support
9. statistical analysis

i think it should be my duty to the new fibotrader users that
they will start their own technical analysis as soon as after installation not
to bother to customize its enviornment. for their convenience i uploaded
my own 'Main' file to Rapidshare. what u will have to do is that unzip it and paste it to
-->your drive->Fibotrader->data. restart Fibotrader.
the 'Main' file contains my own templates and sector wise break up of thousands of BSE and NSE stocks. u could also create your own templates.

download link :

Hi

You seem to be a samaritan

Keep up the good work

By the way I have another problem

I have downloaded F charts SE from http://www.spacejock.com/FreechartsSE.html

Since there is some learning curve associated with most software, for the moment I'm planning to stick to F charts

For a low level user like me The software is more than good but for backfill, it will only download those symbols where the entire symbol length WITH the .NS suffix is less than 12 characters. So I am stuck without any backfill data for those stock where the TOTAL LENGTH of the symbol with the .NS extension is more than 12 characters - say for e.g. BANNKBARODA.NS

Request : would you know How to solve this problem ? else could you forward my query to any of your friends who can help me solve this problem


Thanks in advance
Best regards

vinayak


p.s. - the next few days I'll try your suggestions as well with Fibotrader. However I am vary of all those software that says they are pay and use. One fine day they may stop working and then I may have to start all over again !!

Hi Soumya & Fibotrader,

I tried reintsalling to another hard drive but that also did not work. When I launch fibo, it opens up default window and then just hangs saying chart(not responding).
I am attaching all the log files. Fibotrader could you please take a look at it.

Thanks,
Amit

Please direct questions regarding crashes and issues to [email protected] to reach the people you need. A first solution would be to install the latest beta through Preferences/Update. Does this help?

 

[amitpethkar]

Hi Fibotrader,

Thanks for the help. I have posted the issue to fibotrader support.
Latest update also did not help.

Thanks,
Amit

Hi! Soumya,

Would be grateful if you could please revert on the following:

1) Is there an indicator / filter that tells us that a stock has just made a higher pivot high & higher pivot low on the WEEKLY charts. Have written to Fibotrader, byt they have not reverted.

2) What are the indicators / filters that you use to shortlist stocks for a trade.
I am spending far too much time looking for a Buy set up. Can you please help.

Thanks & regards,
Amit
