Don, you sound very frustrated, don't be. Everyone is doing this when time allows. So it is with Orest.
I am the first few on FF who found Trader101's method, and I read all the way through, and two years flew. and I pick it up again now.
I also read through 2009 till now on this thread, i have an impression, don't be offended: you guys might have made it over-complicated
Trader101 earns tons of pips from the 1st day he posted his demo account IA set-up. back then, that's the only tool.
I quit this method back in 2008, because i have no time to wait by the PC. However, this method still seem valid to me. Now Orest's EA and T101_dashboard_zz inicator are sufficient for a user to do it more flexbily, no need to wait by the PC all the time. I also want to say that your backtest indicator, very advanced, could be very valuable to advanced users.
How to then?
my feeling is when across board you see Long(Strong),or Short(strong), you just do it, and it is not easy to StopOut. of course, this is not the original strategy. ultimately, this tool is a trend-identification system. i remember a fundamentally sound way to trade it:
Every week, set up the dashboard, wait till Monday U.S session, you then have a feeling about the market (the dashboard should tell by then).
then you trade the direction the dashboard suggests. if stopout, you wait for tuesday or reenter if the trend reversal is fierce.
As to Orest EA, he has tried to explain how to use it since Feb 01/2010. Search his posts since then. you'll see his instructions on how to here and there.

DislikedNo reason to continue to waste my time and even give input on improvements that could be made if nothing is gonna be changed and questions are not even gonna be answered.
