If you look right now on Cable 1M, the 2018 GMT bar is at 1.8967, and there are 3 previous bars of red indicator. However, when the price goes to 1.8968 or higher, the indicator 2 BARS PREVIOUSLY changes color from red to yellow.

That is, the bar at 2017, the PREVIOUS bar's indicator, turns color from red to yellow. THIS is what we all mean by "repainting the past." In other words, you are in this trade short right now, but when the price goes up one tick the indicator makes it look like you should have been OUT of the trade at least 1-2 bars EARLIER.

Why is this so difficult to understand?
