v0.8.1 - Holidays

... will be out tomorrow. I just have to do a test install on a different computer before I make it available.

The Change Log has already been updated. As have the Known Bugs. And the Road Map.

Holidays can be attached to your Trading Systems and/or Alerts. They make sure that no auto-trading or alerting is done during times you have specified.

Holidays can be defined as between particular dates (e.g. 1:03AM 21-Sep-06 to 2:55:06PM 22-Sep-06); for days of the week (e.g. 1:03AM Thursdays to 2:55:06PM Fridays); or for days of the month (e.g. 1:03AM every 2nd Thursday to 2:55:06PM every 3rd Friday).

It can also download the Forex Factory Calendar, and automatically create holidays from those calendar events. You decide which level of Forex Factory events (high impact/medium impact/low impact) creates Holidays.

I've outlined in the Road Map exactly what's going to be done in future releases. There's only candlestick-based rules and Morley's position-sizing technique that are new functionality, with the other changes being bug fixes. And there aren't many bug fixes.

So... if you were waiting for v1.0 to come around, I don't see the harm in jumping in now at the cheaper price. But please read the Known Bugs page before doing so.
