How much are you willing to spend (lose) to learn about these subjects? :)

Try 0.0025 for 25 pips. Also, look at the examples on their website: APS Automatic Pattern Search Software Forex Application

Public domain systems don't make money.

Pls allow me to ask why woudl anyone want to buy an old program with many bugs?

I tried using data from yahoo in the past but it seems to me they are not split-adjusted and thus useless for back testing purposes. Do you agree ? John

Byculla, This company has an excellent customer service. They even answer emails during weekends. My problem was that I tried to pay for the program while on a business trip. They probably checked my IP and I was rejected (the country was Turkey). Where are you located? Maybe that's the...

Thanks Pat, I hope you're making money during this rally in equities. It's amzing, isn't it? Dow is defiant, my gosh.. I got a license of APS last week and guess what? The program paid for itself in two days! Just amazing! Signals: 04/30 LONG MET @ 65.70 Closed today @ 66.70 500 shares...

Pat, are you still using APS Automatic Pattern Search? What do you think of this program? Have you had any luck with it? John

Grant, you are absolutely correct and I will follow your advise. I appreciate you sharing your experience. I'm getting the feeling that he wants to use me as a "back stage trader", he doesn't want the other fund directors know of the arrangement. John

Rsidiv, I worked with the aps demo and I like what I see. I will get the program next week finally and I'm interested in developing EL code based on the aps patterns as described in the program help file under tips for advanced users. Specifically, I'm interested in consecutive price pattern...

jong this is a good pont but the problem is that a power of attorney is general and in this case my activities are restricted to particular markets and risk levels. John

grantx, ty for your reply. His point is that an advisor contract must be registered with the fund prospectus and regulators (if any) and he wants to avoid doing the paperwork until he determines that I can make money for him. As you understand I cannot push it because I risk a deal breaker...

Candidate traits they look for: http://www.transmarketgroup.com/Chicago/CareerCenter2.htm By the way, is this like any other prop firm, are you required to risk your own capital or this is a traditional prop trading house looking for traders? Good luck. John
