RealTest Coders Workshop
(Melbourne Quant Traders SIG)

Purpose

This workshop is designed for ATAA members and visitors who are already using RealTest software and wish to join a workshop group to build knowledge and share experiences.

Agenda

• 8:00 – 8:10 Chris Meakin – Intro, plus discussion on the best way forward WRT “homework” and discussion topics.
• 8:10 – 8:40 All – discussion on various Capitulation Indices.
• 8:40 – 9:10 All – Attempt to reverse engineer Nick Radge's strategy, as shown here: forum link.
• 9:10 – 9:25 All – Pairs Trading, as shown here: forum link. We'll only do this topic if time permits – might be best if we hold over until next month (unless someone has already put a lot of work into the topic).
• 9:25 – 9:30 All – any other items; next month’s topic(s); wrap up.

Please note: a couple of the above topics are expanded upon somewhat within the RT Coders SIG: see here.
