Neuroshell DayTrader Professional 5.3 Beta 4 + Activator

[urmet]

NeuroShell Trader Series 5.0 !!!

Release 5.3 is VISTA compatible.

Overview of release 5.3

Release 5.0 has been in the making about three years, and contains some of the most sophisticated capabilities available today. Following are a few of the most significant enhancements:

Integrated trading

In release 5.3 you can elect to have your trades sent automatically to your trading account at Interactive Brokers and the fill prices are recorded on your NeuroShell chart. Interactive Brokers is an efficient, low cost, and reliable worldwide broker.

Instead of sending trades to Interactive Brokers, you can elect to have the trade details emailed to email addresses of your choice.

Want to write an integrated trading interface to some to some other broker? No problem, release 5.0 contains a programmer’s API so that programmers in your shop or your broker’s shop can write your own custom interface. In fact, if your broker wants to build an interface, we’ll work with them to get it going quickly and correctly.

New bar types for NeuroShell DayTrader

There are several new bar types for intraday trading when using the Quote.com or eSignal data feeds. The amount of historical data depends on the amount of tick history the data supplier keeps.

• Range Bar Charts – Constant range bars can be created where each bar represents trading activity for the user-specified minimum price range. The high-low range of each bar will equal the specified range. Each bar is created by accumulating trades until the high-low range is reached. The first trade to break outside that range starts a new bar. Since price gaps are not filled with phantom bars, the high-low range of a bar can sometimes exceed the specified range when prices gap outside the range before a bar’s price range criteria was met.
  
  Volume Bar Charts – Constant volume bar charts can be created where each bar represents trading activity for the user-specified minimum volume. The volume of each bar will equal the specified volume. Each bar is created by accumulating trades until the specified volume is reached.
  
  Tick Bar Charts - Tick bar charts can be created where each bar represents trading activity for the user-specified number of trades.
• Second Bar Charts –Second bars can be created for the user specified number of seconds.

Note – When using any of the above bar types, especially bars that close quickly, like tick bars with a small specified number of ticks, it is possible in fast moving markets that more complex models will not keep up with tick/bar arrival.

More flexible minute and hour bars
Minute and Hour bars can now be created with any number of minutes or hours per bar.

Technical analysis drawing capabilities
We have added a number of new chart drawing capabilities on release 5.0:

• You can draw and edit lines, rectangles, and ellipses You can draw and edit trend lines and trend channels You can draw and edit Fibonacci retracement lines, Fibonacci projection lines, and Fibonacci time lines
• You can type and edit text annotations or reminders onto a chart

Prediction and Trading Strategy Wizard changes

The Prediction and Trading Strategy Wizards have been revamped to provide a powerful new capability that promotes more robust optimization results. In other words, the optimizer now has a feature to minimize over-fitting so that future trading after optimization is more likely to succeed.

This new feature is called "paper trading" and the way it works is that it does not keep the most optimum solution found. Instead, it keeps a less optimum solution, the one that works best on future data.

It actually tests each good solution on future "out-of-sample" data to assure a more robust solution than the optimum is picked. You can still test the robust "paper trading" on more out-of-sample data if you wish.

Ticker scanning

Large numbers of ticker symbols can be scanned for user definable criteria or values. Users can create and save scan templates. Scanning periodicity (minute bars, hour bars, etc.) and how far back data is scanned is also user selectable. You can sort the tickers scanned by indicator values, and select which tickers will be used to create a NeuroShell chart.

Workspaces

You can now save and load workspaces, which are collections of charts you want to load at the same time. If you are trading with a number of charts, they no longer need to be loaded individually.

Bid and Ask statistics

When using any tick by tick data stream based charting method (Second Bars, Tick Bars, Volume Bars and Range Bars), the following bid and ask data streams are created in addition to the standard Open, High, Low, Close and Volume:

Bid -The current bid price at the close of the bar. Ask -The current ask price at the close of the bar. Bid Size-The number of shares offered for purchase at the current bid price at the close of the bar. Ask Size-The number of shares offered for sale at the current ask price at the close of the bar. # Bid Trades-The number of trades that occurred at the bid price during the last bar. # Ask Trades-The number of trades that occurred at the ask price during the last bar. Bid Trade Volume-The total volume of trades that occurred at the bid price during the last bar. Ask Trade Volume-The total volume of trades that occurred at the ask price during the last bar. Avg Bid Trade Volume-The average trade volume for trades that occurred at the bid price during the last bar.
Avg Ask Trade Volume-The average trade volume for trades that occurred at the ask price during the last bar.

Note that bid/ask statistics may not be available for every ticker symbol. Availability is dependent upon whether the data provider includes current bid/ask ticks in the tick by tick data stream for a given ticker symbol.
New bar coloring facilities

·Increasing/Decreasing Bar Colors – Ability to color data series in user selected colors based upon whether the data series is increasing or decreasing.
·Maximum/Minimum Range Bar Colors – Ability to color data series in user selected colors based upon whether the data has reached a user defined upper range or lower range.

·Gradient Color Bars – Ability to color data series in a user defined color gradient based upon the bar’s relative range or relative increase/decrease. The gradient color shading is determined based upon the number of last bars chosen.

Trading data set recalculates statistics with updated data

As a chart is updated with more data, a Trading data set is added to both the prediction and trading strategies which allow a user to view the trading statistics, trade by trade, etc. with data going forward since the trading strategy or prediction was last backtested. Each time a trading strategy or prediction is modified when there is new data on the chart, the Trading Strategy Wizard and the Prediction Wizard will recalculate the Trading data set statistics to include the latest data.

Portfolio trading features

NeuroShell now has some powerful portfolio management capabilities when you make use of the indicators in the Chart Page Calculation Indicators category. This category contains the Chart Page Upper Rank, Lower Rank, Percentile, Maximum, Minimum, Sum, Average, Count, Standard Deviation, and Z-Score.

Use these indicators in charts with multiple chart pages (i.e. ticker symbols) to compare the current chart page indicators/value with all the other chart pages. So for instance you could use the Chart Page Upper Rank indicator to view the rank of each chart page value relative to the other chart pages, as an input to a prediction that indicates how the ticker is performing relative to others, or even as an input to a trading strategy which might limit trading to the top 3 tickers with the most volume. The possible uses of these indicators is limitless.

Faster optimization of trailing stop and exit indicators

Protective stop and exit signal indicators now process much faster during optimization of a trading strategy as long as they are not part of another indicator.

The indicators that optimize faster are:
Entry Price: Percent Activation
Entry Price: Point Activation
Price floor: Percent
Price floor: Points
Trailing price: Percent
Trailing price: Points
Bars Since Activated = X
Bars Since Activated >= X
Bars Since Filled = X
Bars Since Filled >= X
Price Target: Percent
Price Target: Points


Point values for each ticker symbol

Point Values for predictions and trading strategies are now entered on a ticker by ticker basis. This allows for backtesting and optimizing of strategies across multiple chart pages, with each chart page having a different point value. The point values for each ticker symbol are also saved and remembered for use in future charts, predictions and trading strategies.



Chart recalculate

A ‘Recalculate Chart’ menu item is now listed in the pop-up menu that appears when the mouse is positioned over a blank area of the chart and the right mouse button is clicked. Use the Recalculate Chart menu item to reread data files and recalculate all the calculations in a chart.

When the chart is based on an external data file that is being updated by an external program, manually recalculating the chart will allow new data from the data file to be incorporated into the chart without having to load and unload the chart.

Also use the ‘Recalculate Chart’ menu item allows for a trading strategy or prediction to ‘peek’ into the next bar to make decisions. One use of this feature is to make strategies that can execute a few seconds after the morning’s open in a daily chart, incorporating the open in the strategy.

A simple overview
The NeuroShell Trader is trading system building software. It is not a trading system in its own right, it is a toolkit of both traditional and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques you can combine to form computerized trading models. The models can consist of indicators and rules like traders have used for years, artificial intelligence techniques, or hybrids of both. It will build models for equities, futures, commodities, options, FOREX, indexes and more. You can build models for exchanges all over the world, like the NYSE, AMEX, FTSE, DAX, ASX, TSX, SFE, and many more. To build models you just need to be able to obtain data for the instrument or exchange in which you are interested. Then the models you build will automatically back-test, and continue to give signals into the future as new data arrive.

Advanced degrees and skills not necessary
To use NeuroShell you do not need to be a programmer, a Ph.D., an AI expert, a mathematician, or a statistician. In fact, sometimes it is better that you are NOT one of those things. That is because neural network experts, for example, frequently cannot come to grips with how easy and fast it is to train our neural networks. They are usually tied to the old style neural nets that require lots of "tweaking" to even get a net working. Often they think there must be something inferior about our technology because we have made it simple enough for traders and other novices to use. Neural net experts might be happier with our generic AI products.

Artificial intelligence study not required
Many people think they must have to read books about neural networks, genetic algorithms, and fuzzy logic or take a course before they can effectively utilize our software. That is just not true. We have already done all that studying for you starting in 1988, and created software that allows you to concentrate on the business end, not the science end. Our genetic algorithms, for example, act almost like other traditional optimizers. The main difference is you don't have to give them search increments, because they don't search the same way. With our advanced neural nets, you mainly worry about what to feed them, instead of how to get them configured and running. We let you drive with an automatic transmission, power windows, power steering, and power seats instead of making you learn to shift gears and do everything else manually.

Not a "silver bullet"
Although we have made artificial intelligence easier to use, it does not instantly build wonderful trading systems. However, we do provide a number of examples and other traditional systems designed by others. In addition, each new purchaser of NeuroShell will receive a 30 day free trial of our MarketTilt Turnkey models so you will have working models to use while you build your own.

Three versions
The NeuroShell Trader comes in three versions. The basic NeuroShell Trader uses only daily, weekly, or monthly bars and contains over 800 indicators and neural networks. It contains an Indicator Wizard, a Prediction Wizard, and a Trading Strategy Wizard.
The NeuroShell Trader Professional is like NeuroShell Trader, except that it includes the genetic algorithm optimizer and some more advanced indicators like wavelets, principal component analysis, and fast Fourier transforms. It also has the capability of saving templates for indicators, predictions, and trading strategies. You can define alerts to let you know when conditions you define have occurred. In this version, you can also call indicators you have programmed, should you choose to do so.
The NeuroShell DayTrader Professional is like the NeuroShell Trader Professional, except that it reads and displays intraday (real time) data bars. There are also some additional indicators to define time based events. For example you can specify you only want to trade between 10 am and 11am. You can choose from hour and minute bars, and on some data feeds, you can use tick, second, volume and range bars.
Here is more detailed comparison.

Everything is chart based
Charts are the major component of NeuroShell. You may open many charts at one time, either new ones or ones you have previously built and saved. When you create a new chart, you specify their periodicity with which you want to see and process the data, as well as how far back in time you want to load the data. Next you specify the related instruments whose historical data should be loaded into the chart. They are the target instruments for which you wish to create trading signals. Multiple instruments in the chart show up in their own chart page. For the rest of the discussion in this document, let's say you load IBM, DELL, HPQ, and AAPL as your target instruments. (They don't have to be stocks; they can be FOREX pairs, commodities, E-minis, options, etc).

Data streams
Charts contain data streams, which can be plotted or hidden. Of course, the first data streams loaded will be open, high, low, close, volume, and possibly more raw data for the target instruments. You can also insert other data streams called other instrument data that will be available in each chart page, like indexes or raw data for other stocks. This other instrument data is information you want to use to create trading signals. For discussion, let's say you believe that the Dow Jones US Computer Index ($DJUCR on eSignal) and INTC will be useful for deciding how the target computer stocks should be traded. You would then load these as other instrument data so that they will be available data streams in all chart pages.

Indicators
The next data streams you will want to include will probably be indicators. Models generally are built using indicators based upon the raw data and the other instrument data. Let's say you believe that the following indicators will be useful in models that will produce trading signals, because you have heard people in your investment club talking about them:
1. The spread between each target stock and INTC
2. The relative strength between each target stock and $DJUCR
3. A stochastic %k indicator applied to each target stock
Therefore, the next thing you might do is insert the indicators above into your chart using the Indicator Wizard.
The Indicator Wizard can build some pretty complex indicators without programming or using a special language. It just uses "point and click" to construct new indicators from existing ones, rules, and math functions so that you never have to worry about a missing comma or unmatched parens.
You may or may not have a clue about what the indicators above do - read on.

Models
Once the chart loads up with the requested data, you are ready to define one or more models in the chart. Any model that you build in the chart automatically applies to all instruments in the chart. Your model can be optimized the same for all chart pages, or custom optimized for each chart page. Models can be either Trading Strategies or Predictions.
You may or may not have a clue about how the indicators you have chosen work. If you do, you probably have some idea about how they would be used to generate trading signals, rules like "Buy when the relative strength between the stock and the $DJUCR is high, and the spread with INTC is low." In this case you will want your model(s) to be Trading strategies, even if you are unsure what values should be considered high and low above. The genetic algorithm optimizer will find the values for you, or alternatively, you might just want to use our Fuzzy Sets add-on.
If you either have no clue about how the indicators work, or no clue about appropriate rules for them, you will probably want to build a Prediction with a neural net for your model(s), because neural nets find their own rules.
Note that you can insert several models in a chart. Once you insert a model, it automatically applies to all chart pages.

Trading Strategies
The Trading Strategy Wizard is a fast mechanism for entering trading rules without having to type messy formulas or write in some algorithmic programming-like language. The Wizard is all point and click. You just list the rules for long entry, long exit, short entry, and short exit (cover). Each of these rules is in fact an indicator you build just like any other indicator - with the Indicator Wizard. You can also enter indicators for stop and limit price levels, including trailing stops.
If you want to optimize your trading strategies, the genetic algorithm optimizer will do these things for you:
1. Find which of the rules you have listed should be used in combination
2. Find out what the parameters of the indicators in your rules should be set to
3. Perform 1. and 2. above at the same time (we call this full optimization)
Even your stops and limits can be optimized.
When the Trading strategy is complete, it will show you historical buy and sell signals. As new data is entered into the future, those buy and sell signals will continue to appear with each new bar. You can insert a variety of indicators to plot how your profit is growing.

Predictions
Predictions are neural nets made with the Prediction Wizard. That's what our standard neural nets do, they make predictions about the future value of a data stream, usually a price or change in price, but any data stream can be predicted.
Here is basically all you have to do to make a prediction model:
1. Choose some inputs - data streams, usually indicators, that you believe are leading indicators of the market
2. Decide what you want to predict, usually change or percent change of the open or close
3. Decide how much historical data will be used to train the neural net
4. Decide how much historical data you want to use to test how well the neural net has learned
If you want to optimize your prediction, the genetic algorithm optimizer will do these things for you:
1. Find which of the inputs you have listed should be used in combination
2. Find out what the parameters of the indicators in your inputs should be set to
3. Perform 1. and 2. above at the same time (we call this full optimization)
4. Find neural network thresholds for trading
When the prediction is complete, it will show you historical buy and sell signals. As new data arrive in the future, those buy and sell signals will continue to appear with each new bar. You can insert a variety of indicators to plot how your profit is growing.

Back-testing
Sometimes when you build traditional models, neural net models, or optimized models of any type, it is possible to make a model so good that it does not hold up with future market conditions. This is called over-fitting. Therefore, NeuroShell contains facilities that will automatically backtest with out-of-sample data for you, so you can gain confidence that your model will hold up in the future.
Our optimizer also works in a mode we call "paper trading". In this mode, the optimizer keeps the model that works better in a period of time after the optimization period, rather than the optimal (peak) model. Paper trading automatically gives you a model that is less likely to be overfit, and more likely to work well into the future.

Alerts
NeuroShell lets you take almost any condition, not just trading signals, and define an alert to let you know when that condition has just occurred.

Endless possibilities for advanced users
Since everything in NeuroShell is a data stream, there are many ways to build hybrid models by feeding the results of one wizard into another wizard. Indicators can go into other indicators, predictions and trading rules can go into indicators, trading signals can go into other trading rules, etc., etc., etc.
You can build hybrid trading strategies that involve neural net predictions as well as standard rules. You can build a "panel of experts" - a strategy that consults several other strategies or nets to see what the majority predicts.
You can build pairs trading models and even optimize them.
You can build portfolio models, where the model looks at a basket of stocks and takes a position in one or more of them based upon their relative position in the basket (Relative position can be based upon one or more indicators or neural nets.) These portfolio models can be hedged to be market neutral, so that at a given time there are an equal number of long and short positions.
You can build intraday models with the NeuroShell DayTrader Professional to make decisions about direction of the market at specified times of the day.
You can optimize each instrument in the chart individually, or do one general optimization that results in the same model for all instruments in the chart.
You can export data, indicators, signals, equity curves, etc. from NeuroShell into text files for processing in Excel, statistical programs, or other trading systems. You can load text files of indicators or signals from other programs into NeuroShell in many cases.
Sometimes you may have in mind indicators that are too complex even for our Indicator Wizard to construct. In that case, you can program your own in standard languages.
If you don't want to use Interactive Brokers and have another broker you'd rather send trades to automatically, you or your programmers may be able to use our programmable "Trade Pump" to program your own interface.
We also have a programmable interface called the "Data Pump" which may allow you or your programmer to build an interface to an intraday data provider not already supported by NeuroShell.

Tested : WORKS ( needs Datafeed tests to be 100% sure, though - i can't test this process, since i have no R/T datafeed account )

I have tested some functions, quickly, and everything was OK....No BUG detected, so far.

one question, I am new of this community, everytime someone download I will get credits for it?

[JoeDOM_Admin]

urmet:

Thanks for asking.

That feature of getting credits for every download we planned to implement but was beyond our programming capabilities.

The credits you will surely earn for this contribution are based on multiples of the cost we set for it.
The cost we set for this will be high, so you will earn a one time proportional multiple of it.

For a summary of our wealthpoints grading system, you can go here:

Contributions and Wealthpoints Rules and Guidelines

It should be ready (awarded and cost set) by this afternoon once we have cleaned up the post and ready for public viewing.
