just to highlight an old thread - are there any users of stratasearch that frequent these boards of late?
I'm just having a look at this software and would be interested in any comments.
Cheers,
UTB
SS is very fast and has an excellent library of preprogrammed scans. To be able to run a custom scan, some knowledge of the SS programming language is needed and this is where you could have some difficulty.
It has a 30 day unrestricted evaluation, you can easily find out if it suits you.

Cheers Kunal,
I'm currently using the software under trial. I like the look, but I'm wondering about the support. The discussion forum in't very lively, but perhaps the email support is better?
Do you use it?
UTB
Cheers, Rich!
I used it a long time ago in trial mode, got fed up of being unable to do the scans I wanted. If you have a rough idea of what you want, the same task can be done in Amibroker faster and with more flexibility since Amibroker can use VB too.
The language syntax in both is horrible, but at least AB has a huge archive of past solutions and a user support group to help noobs.
SS is defnitely a diamond in the rough, if only the programming was made easier the developer would have a goldmine on his hands.

hmmm....I'm tempted, though I share your concerns. I love the speed and simplicity at which it runs the scans - but suspect I'd need to learn some language. Reasonable price, mind. Thanks anyway.
UTB
Learning the language is'nt the problem, where do you learn it from?

Maybe from studying the logic behind the existing indicators. Add to that the forum and email support - maybe it would be possible. There's certainly a regular poster on the forum from SS - but not to many others it seems.
UTB
Rich, perhaps you could take a look at amibroker. If you're looking for optimization it's the best. If you just want to combine a few indicators and see what happens SS may be faster.
IMO, the best way to go is just write your own software and it is'nt as complicated as people think. Nowadays, VB is being taught in schools.
Of course, it would'nt have the speed of SS or AB, but the flexibility is amazing, and all in less than 500kb.

Hi Blades,
I am a huge fan of Strata Search,and I have used just about every program out there.IMHO,it is the most unique,and no other program in that price point offers what SS does.If nothing else,it will enlighten you and save you hundreds of hours in determining what really works in the market.It really isnt possible with any other program as we inherently are biased and build things off of our belief system.
The progrma has full walk foward capabilities as well a running multiple systems.The reports are excellent,and the developer answers any and all questions the same day,weekends included...
I would strongly reccomend a goog hard look

question in our First Steps forum.
StrataSearch is software for individual traders that automatically generates powerful trading systems with the click of a button. Using over 2,500 prebuilt trading rules and a flexible scoring algorithm, Strata Search continuously creates new and unique trading strategies, evaluates and optimizes them, and combines them into a self-improving multi-system. You simply click Start.So i’m using the software under trial. StrataSearch found is very fast and have outstanding library of preprogrammed scans.
