Hi Jay, Len and all. I'm an absolute Newbie to using Neural Nets for stock timing and Neurostock but I've submitted a few problems to net builders at work so I'm familiar with their potential. I've had the notion in the back of my mind for a long time that I would like to progress from TA with WOW and MS to neural net approaches to stock timing but there seemed to be a $ and learning barrier to getting started. I found out about Neurostock last night by noticing the thread on SI and last night I read the entire thread here and the FAQ at the Neurostock site and downloaded the v2.102 NS6S and am starting to play with it. I'd like to ask a question. Should I play around with the NS6S version for very long or am I wasting my time, and should just jump to the NS20S or the NS40S, or perhaps right to one of the commercial versions? My fear is that I'll dump a few hundred dollars and never generate anything worth anything. My real question is this: What version should I start with such that my learning process isn't held back by the programs limitations and is it pretty much a no brainer that I will be able to come up with something useful? As background, I've developed a few indicators and successful trading systems using WOW and MS in the past so I think I've at least gotten a view of the TA landscape. I'm really trying to decide whether I would be better off putting money into a powerful version of Neurostock or BioComp's Profit or Neuroshell Trader. Any input from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for what may be a string of newbie questions in the future. I'll try to get them more focused that these though. : )
