One can always design a better mouse trap. The proof of the pudding lies in
the eating. The results generated by the software will be the final test but
one should not give up just before starting. There are easy guides on stock
evaluation system but then the systems do not work. Otherwise, the author
would have been counting his billions to the bank rather than wasting his
time in writing that guide and peddling it everywhere.

Without doubt. Very well said, Robert. The uncertainty is the spice of life
in the trader's day. Even the slightest edge, when imposed on trading of
trillions, would result in gain of millions, a substantial sum by any
standards.
Let the members of this list offer themselves as Beta testers for any
software which Mr. Amaury may develop.
I will be happy t offer myself as the first one.
With best wishes,
P.K.Saha
