Multiple data sources in strategy development

Sidhartha · 03-10-2008, 05:40 PM

Hi all,

Is it possible within NT strategy development, to combine data from various disparate instruments to trigger buy & sell signals...?

As a simple example, would it possible to trigger a buy signal in the ES 03-08 contract if certain standard technicals were confirmed (e.g. fast MA crossing over slow MA) AND certain technical signals were triggered in the YM 03-08 at the same time...??

So buy/sell signals in one instrument become contingent, not only on technical signals within the instrument in question, but ALSO on other technical signals being triggered in another instrument...?

Is that possible...? If so can you give me some pointers...?

Many Thanks
