thx, again that color change was sort of my creative way to try and figure out how to have it go long earlier than waiting for price to go back over the ATR and to signal a possible abc that would get the system back long earlier.

again for us we can see obvious abc patterns, and other patterns. But trying to program that into a computer what you see with your eyes especially patterns is ridiculously hard. Even things trying to have the computer identify an ascending triangle. you might write something that finds some that qualify but then other times you see a perfect pattern and you wonder why the heck didn't my system show this as on?  coding a computer to find patterns is extremely difficult 

this abc color change is something I came up with. Is it perfect, hell no, I can show past times when it signaled and was just wrong.  Many other times it's great signal. Again that's what you guys have to understand about this, it's hard to find ways to come up with logic to do what you visually see, this one what I figured out. I think it's pretty good but not perfect. By the way you can also do the same thing with like a 60 Stochastic indicator or 34 Stochastic
