EdgeWare FastBreak Pro Version 6.2 - Manual (Page 11)

Note: You can load trading systems developed with Version 3 of FastBreak into this
new version, however, you must input the beta /correlation index and calculation
period on the Funds/Index tab. After you have entered this information you will need
to resave the DFT file.
Here is a short list of some of the major enhancements:
 Better Opportunity Sell Signal (BOSS)
 Numerous buy filters: EMA, parabolic, RSI, beta, and correlation
 New information in summary output (Beta, Alpha, and Correlation)
 New information in detail output to explain why a fund was sold
Because of changes in program calculation logic, you may see changes in results from
your trading systems developed with prior versions of FastBreak Pro. Here are just a few
examples:
 We removed the Adaptive Moving Average as a stop option. This was done because
we never found the AMA to be a particularly effective stop option, and we wanted to
make room on the Stops tab for a much more effective new option called BOSS.
 Change in the logic for the Rate of Return Sell stop. We now check a candidate fund,
prior to purchase, to verify that it exceeds the stop parameters specified.
