“Building Winning Trading Systems With TradeStation” is brand new and probably the best ‘Intro to EasyLanguage’ currently available other than the manuals TradeStation itself offers. The title suggests it is a strategy book, but the ‘strategy’ section is only about 50 pages of a 375 page book. The rest of the text is a good intro to TradeStation, EasyLanguage and trading, including tips on debugging, performance reports, StopLoss exits and other somewhat obscure topics.
Other EasyLanguage guides are somewhat dated (though, I still find them interesting). Check out “Ask Mr. EasyLanguage” and “Using Easy Language” if you want to comparison shop.
Much of the book can be found elsewhere, particularly the online TradeStation manuals. 90 pages of appendix comes straight from the online ‘EasyLanguage Reference Guide’ (a pdf file). What is unique about the book is the ‘system development’ perspective. The online guides offer little or no help developing trading systems.
The CD contains the code described in the book. The code could have been put on 2 floppy disks, but I guess a CD is cheaper and saves space.
