Automatic System Creator

Trading System Lab (TSL) is a software platform that automatically creates
trading systems, its developers announced. Tsl reduces or eliminates the
need to learn a programming language since TSL also generates the system
code in several languages, including EasyLanguage. TSL will create single
market systems, pairs systems, portfolio systems, daytrading systems and
options systems, including options trading equity curves. This software
makes use of a genetic program that is more advanced that a genetic algorithm.
TSL accepts different data formats and allows users to set their own trading
system requirements and patterns or indicators as input data.
