1/18/2005
- FastBreak Pro and Standard version
5 now available!
FastBreak Pro 4.7 upgrade and FastBreak 4.7 upgrade are available for download - 1/25/2004
Standard FastBreak and FastBreak Pro V4.0 assumed certain stops (exponential moving average, parabolic, and RSI) were active on the date of a trade. FastBreak would verify that the purchased fund was trading above the stops before it would allow the fund to be purchased. However, some users want to activate stops several days after a fund is purchased so the upgrade will not screen funds to be purchased for these stops if the trading system activates the stop on other than the first day of the trade.
Upgrade fixes a problem when using weekly trading combined with a market timing signal that wasn't on a market buy for the first trade of the strategy.
Upgrade has additional error checking for funds that did not exist at the start of the system trading period. This mostly affected the RSI stop. This change also applies to FastBreak Pro version 3.3.
FastBreak Pro version 4 now available.
