I have just joined this great community, hoping to contribute some of my years of real world trading experiences with the group.

I have not purchased the Quantshare software, but have heard a lot of good things about it from my friends.

I have a couple of questions:

1. I have personally developed a tons of market "breadth"-based indicators in Excel Formulas and/or VBA
(such as Sector-based, Index-based, Industry-group-based breadth indicators)
I would like to know how easy is it to convert from the Excel-based Breadth-indicators to Quantshare custom composite indicators.
I already see some of the breadth-based indicator available in Quanshare, such as TRIN, ADV-DEC line, etc.

2. The problem of Excel is that I have to develop my own symbol/quote database in MS Access and then import into Excel.
But my database is getting so huge, My Excel can't handle the data any longer.
So, I would like to ask the experts here, how easy is it for me to import my huge Access database into Quantshare and do the analysis with my own custom breadth-based indicators.

3. When doing the Breadth based analysis, the CPU demand is immense, Is there a performance problem with QUantshare system?

Thanks.

Hi,

1/ It is not difficult to create custom breadth indicators. We have many example in the sharing server.
2/ You should export your Access data in CSV format then import it into QuantShare. Or you can use one of our downloaders to get data into QuantShare
3/ QuantShare performance is much better than Excel. Everything is done in background and you will be informed when market breadth calculation is completed.
