glen,
regards.
i only just read your post.
it took me several months but i was eventually able to refine my strategies. the problem was that my strategies would send entry orders to any of the bar indices that i had included without distinction but the stops all were defined exclusively on the main bar index. for a non programmer this would never seem like a problem. once my strategies were structured to send all entries, exits and stops to the bar index with the highest frequency then my strategies would perform as intended.
i have shared some screengrabs and recommendations of some of the best systems i have been able to develop to sites like reddit and elite trader. i could share the links with you if you are interested. and the most important recommendation i would make to you from what you posted would be to code on daily bars as very small time frames are full of noise and impossible to trade profitably. work on daily bars and maybe some of your most solid systems can be traded on faster time frames, but never too fast.
very well, regards.
