  1. awesome. as for the stop loss. looking at the graph. where could you have set the stop on the past two (or more) profitable trades without it being hit? maybe something like 3*s.d away from the CR line? or maybe use a similar stop to tp. if 3 or 2*ATR on the loss side seems to be further away than it normally moves (to the negative) might be a good choice. at 2*ATR every bad trade would need one good trade to cancel it out.

    hopefully in the window of +/- 2*ATR you have a much higher % of correct trades than incorrect ones.

  4. How do I set the start date of the arches? does it roll forward automatically as each new bar comes in?

    could i get the latest download with the 38.2 levels without the Murry Math and an input field for startdate?...(my charts are too small and i have enough lines in the DeMarker)

    grrr, #%$!. Looks like its a dead end for me! After all this work of setting up new indicators and new datasources I can't proceed. While trying to write the indicators to file on different timeframes for some meaningful backtesting, I got an "out of Memory" error and of course a crash. Digging deeper, even with slimlined code the same problem exists. Looks like this is a feature of WL according to their site. Memory is not freed up until the end of a script (if explicitly called..). You can imagine the number crunching that needs to be done. Starting to really like MT4 but just a trust issue. Going to break something now.

    ES, not too sure what you mean by start date. The indicator should start x periods from the last bar always. i.e last bar - 299 bars. It should be dropping the first bar and adding the new bar for all calculations. If its not doing that than it is flawed and maybe something in the code is missing??
