Thanks for listing out the general steps for a trading model. Little more elaboration would help us novice system developers (Pardon the audacity) to get a proper direction.
You have a more systematic approach…err ..more scientific approach to system modeling and development.
Tough I hate to mix too much science into trading I am constantly pulled back into it.. oh…. The drawbacks of being an engineer… I would rather deals with SMA and EMA than IIR and FIR filters…
Quoting your post from another thread of yours
.Would you put all the modules into Translation part or would position sizing, trade management into the execution part.
My old fashioned system development consisted of the following
A setup
Entry
Money management
Or am I confusing myself….

Taking another shot at answering to your post.
The purpose of seperating different modules is for easy debugging, readability and optimization, this is esp. important of Intraday based systems.
About the use of DSP and such, again its my firm belief that good systems are created from 'insight' and not from theories/books per se.Thats why newbies/new engineers/new analysts find it hard to create profitable systems, they simply lack the experience to look at things differently and creatively.
For eg, here is a MACD based system that I designed, it has a very simple logic and works across timeframes and is also easy to implement as one financial house is using it regularly.Even though the logic is very simple, I would say most people havent even thought of applying the MACD this way.
