We are getting ready to automate a system I have spent 10 years creating. We have limited access to The Bloomberg Terminal but I have used Sierra Charts a lot in the past. The system we want to automate and backtest is quite complex and we wanted to get an idea of the functionality of Sierra Charts coding and programming for this task. We could use Bloomberg Terminal but we only have access to one physical location shared with 100's of students and would prefer to use Sierra Charts if it is capable. I myself have used the system with Sierra in the past but I actively traded it. I have an two guys with degrees in Analytics, Programming, and Engineering. The system consists of patterns, R:R, breakouts, supports/resistance as well as news events and a couple proprietary indicators. I'm not certain if we will be using algorithms or not. I know this is a broad question. However, any and all information you could provide would be super helpful. We don't want to start working on the system and find out the functionality is not there, then switch to something else and loose time. |
