Found this on Cool-Trade's forums ... posted by "bogusexception" on Dec/26/2008 8:16 PM
"I have a killer strategy for GS that uses MACD, DM and CCI. Backtests at 51.49%/39.56% monthly profit! It goes basically like this:
Open
MACD[MACD,Close,12,26,9,1] > MACD[Signal,Close,12,26,9,1] AND
DirectionalMovement[+DI,14,14,1] < DirectionalMovement[-DI,14,14,1] AND
DirectionalMovement[+DI,14,14,1] < DirectionalMovement[ADX,14,14,1]
Close
DirectionalMovement[+DI,14,14,1] < DirectionalMovement[-DI,14,14,1] AND
CCI[CCI,20,1] > 100 AND
CCI[CCI,20,D,1] >= 100
No trailing stops, nothing. Try it."

Hello Guru_Trader. What does the "1" parameter represent for each indicator?

1 minute interval, except for the D,1, which is 1 day ago.

Ya, I like that Cool-Trade allows you to enter additional criteria like time intervals directly into the technical indicators.

ONLY ISSUE I HAVE HAD IS THAT IF A BACKTEST WINDOW IS OPEN DURING TRADING HOURS, THEN THE PROGRAM WILL HANG UP ON MY PC.

I just got strategy desk... if I read this right the MACD is climbing but the +di(14) is below the -di(14) and the adx is below the +di(14)... can you explain the logic of this Trading Strategy a little more.
Thanks
