Zorro will be available for public beta test by the end of January.

Zorro is supposed to take money from the rich and give it to the poor. When used in huge numbers, it can redistribute wealth globally and make the world a better place - at least, that's the theory. Details can be found at http://zorro-trader.com.

As Zorro uses lite-C, Gamestudio users are potential beta testers. If someone is interested in testing Zorro, please contact us by email under info (at) opgroup.de. Please include your true name and full address, and the info if you have traded before or not. The beta version is not for download, it will be sent by email.

The focus of the Zorro beta test is not earning money, but developing strategies. Although the beta version is already able to trade with real money, better wait for the official release with that - otherwise a little bug can make a huge dent into your bank account...

Frage, Feststellung 1:
Kann man mit ZORRO auch Aktien handeln ?

Frage, Feststellung 2:
Um keine wichtigen Käufe/Verkäufe zu verpassen, scheint es wohl sinnvoll zu sein, eine USV für den "ZORRO"-Rechner zu installieren, oder? (Stromausfall)

Frage, Feststellung 3:
Der "ZORRO"-Rechner muss wohl ständig mit dem Internet verbunden sein? Wie sieht die "Strategie" bei einem regionalen Internetausfall aus? (kann ja mal vorkommen)

Nein, Zorro handelt keine Aktien, denn Handel mit Aktien kann nicht vernünftig automatisiert werden.

Eine USV ist nur nötig, wenn Sie in den USA oder einem ähnlichen Entwicklungsland leben. Normalerweise läuft Zorro auf einem Laptop, so dass kurzfristige Stromausfälle kein Problem sind. Wenn der PC ausfällt, macht Zorro nach Neustart einfach weiter. Wenn das Internet ausfällt, wartet Zorro ab, bis die Verbindung wieder da ist.

When I first opened the page, I looked somewhere in the middle and this was the first sentence I saw (and the first thing you see always gives you the first impression of something):

Since two decades, traders can use the Internet to access the financial markets.


I kinda feel an urge to post this link:

As far as I understand it, trading strategies are tweaked so that they work with past price curves. But how is it guaranteed that they also work with actual prices for which they were not tweaked?

You suggest a minimum amount of start capital of 2000 €/$. What happens if I use a low start capital to "test" it, like 100 or 200 €?

- Trading strategies that are tweaked to past price data must indeed be tested with a different data set for making sure that they also work with real trading. This is a nontrivial problem. Zorro uses an approach called Walk Forward Optimization - you can find details under "Training" and "optimize".

- The current minimum capital for the Z1 and Z2 strategies is $4000, but we hope to get this down to about $2000. When you test it with $100, your chance to lose them is almost 100 percent. Zorro calculates a minimum capital for every script, and that capital is really required. When you just want to test, you can do that with a demo account.
