Question for you experts. I meshed a couple of TRO's filters together. TRO always states wait for green. I understand that once the price rises above yesterday's close the condition is green and buy the ETF or stock. Is this correct? When I ran this filter using my UltraLong ETF Watchlist UYM, DIG, and DXO are triggered because their RSI(2) is below 10 but above 1. Then I can see TRO's RFR statistics to see how often they pop 2-4, 5-9, etc). By the way I forgot how many days are in the pop cycle. If I see 22 under 2-4, how many days did the ETF pop 2-4% 22 times. I do not remember the timeframe. From backtesting this filter and my UltraShort filter the UltraShort's backtesting results are better which makes sense because the shorts are controlling right now. Just want all of your opinions does this strategy combined with using the statistics and waiting for green make sense. My exit strategy on the long is to exit with a 2% gain. My short strategy exit is to get out when RSI(2) hits 70. Using the 2% gain exit strategy also works very well with the UltraShorts also
