Question to Codersguru

Codersguru,

Did you read the posts in this thread? If so, did you notice that there was extensive backtesting going on? I am sure you did, because you answered a question or two on this thread right during the time we stated we were backtesting.

And did you notice my posts asking you when the indicator paints?

Your answer was to simply give us the code, not answer the question.

And if you did notice that we were backtesting, did you not have any desire to warn us that backtesting with your indicator is useless because it repaints the past?

If you did indeed know that your indicator repaints the past, what you have done here will certainly make you no friend of traders. It is harmful to provide an indicator, release it to us, not answer the question of when the bar paint, allowing us to continue with our hours and hours of backtesting knowing all our results were worthless.

If I am wrong and you were not aware that your indicator repaints the past, or if you were simply too busy to answer our questions about when the indicator paints, or if you are unable to speak (and write) English, then I will apologize to you.

But as for now, you have done us a real disservice by your silence on when the bar paints.
