Nice work.

So backtesting... sigh... I am no wiz at back testing and I find it hard to do. Everyone is looking for the panacea of filters, but as some have pointed out, filters are a tool and a starting point. How do you plug in variables in back testing for support and resistance? What I have found in my short trading tenure is any system style or etc. is about support or resistance, unless it is scalping or something. There are a ton of trading systems out there. It is my opinion that it is all about support and resistance and the filter is merely thinning the herd. When I got into trading I was overwhelmed by the number of candidates I had to sift through every night to find potential candidates. But as I matured my skills I soon found out that there is no panacea filter or trading style or method and I had to pick which one best fit my lifestyle and gave me the returns I wanted.

My .02 on backtesting. I won't be much help there.

THE OLD WAY.....

Fetcher[
/* OLD BTTM */

set{var1a,close 1 day ago}
set{var1b,upper acceleration band(20) 1 day ago}
set{var1c,lower acceleration band(20) 1 day ago}

set{var1,count(var1a crossed above var1b,1)}
set{var2,count(close above Upper Acceleration Band(20),1)}

set{vbuy,var1 * var2}

set{var11,count(var1a crossed below var1c,1)}
set{var12,count(close below Lower Acceleration Band(20),1)}

set{vshort,var11 * var12}

set{vsell,count(close crossed below Upper Acceleration Band(20),1)}
set{vbtc,count(close crossed above Lower Acceleration Band(20),1)}

set{vplays,vbuy + vshort}
set{vendit,vsell + vbtc}
set{vactive,vplays + vendit}

add column vbuy
add column vsell
add column vshort
add column vbtc

draw vsell on plot vbuy
draw vshort on plot vbtc
draw acceleration band(20)

close above .1
volume above 1000000

Thanks for the filter Chetron. Is there a way to test these (Acc Bands and Williams %R) for past winning/losing trades and profitability?

Thanks,
Erik
