But I *think* that unless you check the box that says "Test
every "X" min inside the interval bar the signal will not trigger
till the close of the bar. Let me know if that's not right but
that's the way it looks in backtesting. Admittedly I auto trade
with Ninja and IB even though I like to backtest with SD as well as
Ninja so I guess it's possible that a rule that works for
backtesting might not work in real time trading.

Yes I agree. You need the bar delays set to 1 and 2, not 0 and 1, to avoid inadvertant crossovers during the intervals.
