Re: Bug in backtest?

Bug in indis to me. Widely discussed matter - HTF better not to be used.

Maybe you can understand this better - HTF indikátory jsou vadné!

Re: Bug in backtest?

WTF v3 have a bug -- they only work for logics of "rises/falls" and "higher than level line".
Bug is they do not give signals for "A line is higher than B line" (compare 2 indicator values).

How to see bug: if no signals given after first half of data set

I will post updated v4 when the forum allows attachments again.
