• Tradingpatterns.com released version 7 of Automatic Pattern Search (APS), which has a redesigned search engine and results displays that include additional performance parameters. APS discovers trading systems based on price patterns that fulfill user-defined performance statistics and risk/reward parameters by searching historical data. Technical traders can use APS to develop and analyze stock, futures, and forex trading systems based on price patterns. APS generates code for implementing the price patterns it discovers in other popular programs, such as Metastock, Tradestation, Wealth-Lab, and TeleChart.
