screens work ..get back testing or you… screens work ..get back testing or you will not really know what is best. Probably need a month or two of back-testing to get things tested and tuned for your needs. that's the Basic Public Screen plus testing them with the different Setting/Ranking methods is a lot of combinations to start from. Then you can tweak for bad /good market situations.

More Fun Than Video Games! I Joined P123 Apr 28, 2004, and I have been Investing in systems I developed ever sense then. I currently am receiving 60% of my family annual income from my investments. P123 is more fun than video games! I LOVE it! Denny Halwes

Since 2011 this is my main modeling platform - no regrets I have been using this platform since 2011. I have used others, even ones that cost 6-digits per year to license and I can honestly say I prefer this one. I have used ClariFI and WorldQuant to name just 2 of the high institutional grade platforms and about 6 others. The P123 simulation engines are lighting fast, they listen to users and are always adding new features...in fact...after 9 years of using the platform I still probably use only 20% of what it can do. A well-rounded system whether you are running simple screens, custom weighed complex portfolios or in-depth research. Any serious family office or smaller firm should take the time to get one of their guys trained on this platform.

Great interface and tools Great interface and tools. Hopefully the transition to the new data provider goes well.

Portfolio123 is a game-changer for… Portfolio123 is a game-changer for stock investors, providing a powerful platform for the design, simulation, and deployment of quantitative financial models. It also has stock screening, charting (including YChart style), trading (via Interactive Brokers and Tradier), macro economics charting, watchlists, an earnings center, cross-section series plotting, external data importer, a data API, stock news, stock summary snapshots, stock comparison tool, sector/Industry performance, fundamental and estimate summaries, a user forum and more (really). In the near future, machine learning will be supported. It's not just another retail-level tool; it's the only one that I’ve found to work in practice. To find something better, I suspect you'd have to go professional and spend significantly more. I've been a loyal subscriber for over a decade, which speaks volumes about its effectiveness. Is there a downside? Sure, building successful trading models is hard work, but with dedication and focus, it's possible to be successful. Whether you're researching stocks, building and simulating quantitative models, or managing accounts, Portfolio123 has what you need.
