Open Evaluation of TradingSolutions

Two months ago, we introduced the new open evaluation of TradingSolutions. This free Evaluation Version of TradingSolutions allows you to do anything that you can do in TradingSolutions End-of-Day or Real-Time. Perform the step-by-step tutorials to learn how TradingSolutions operates. Download your favorite symbols directly into TradingSolutions from eSignal, Prophet.net, and now Quotes Plus or import them from files. Create models and signals for any symbol. You can even stream data with an eSignal account.

If you tried TradingSolutions previously and were disappointed that you could not evaluate it with you own data, we encourage you to download the Evaluation Version of TradingSolutions today at http://www.tradingsolutions.com/downloads/eval.html


TradingSolutions Sample Performance on Wealth-Lab

Gary Lynn of NeuroDimension has been actively trading several TradingSolutions models at Wealth-Lab (www.wealth-lab.com), an independent interactive trading laboratory. Based on a little over two years of trading, these simulated trades have produced over a 50% annualized return for a total profit of over 100%.

While the trades in this portfolio are simulated, they are all made against live data. Orders placed in the Wealth-Lab system are filled at 10am on the next trading day.

Gary's portfolio consists of the current end-of-day Sample Performance models featured on the TradingSolutions website. This means that you can reproduce the results of each of his trading models directly in TradingSolutions.

   Quick Tips   
Quick Tips: Importing Multiple Symbols

The Import Data Wizard is a powerful and flexible tool for importing many different types of data into TradingSolutions. One of the lesser-known capabilities is the ability to enter multiple symbols to download.

When you select “Download new data from the Internet”, the first step is to indicate which data source you would like to import from and what periodicity you would like to import. (The periodicity is the size of each bar of data - 5 minutes, one hour, one day, etc.)

After you specify this information, the “Select Symbols to Download” page is displayed. This page features an interactive list of U.S. and international symbols that you can select from. If you already know the symbols you would like to download, you can bypass the list by typing the symbols directly into the box labeled “Enter Symbols”.

In addition to entering symbols one-at-a-time, you can also enter multiple symbols separated by commas or semi-colons. Even more useful is the ability to cut and paste a list of symbols from another program or website directly into this box. For example, you could past the symbols for the entire NASDAQ 100 directly into this box. After copying the symbols into the Windows clipboard, simply click in the “Enter Symbols” box and press the Windows paste key (either Shift-Insert or Ctrl-V).

Remember that you only need to specify the symbols once by name. After the first time you import data into your portfolio, simply select “Update data in the target group” in the Import Data Wizard to update all of the stocks in the currently selected group with the most recent information available.

For more information about importing data, see the help chapter called “Importing Data into TradingSolutions”.
