Hi Gene,

The only successful results I obtained with Wavefin on the S&P were generated by letting NS Trader Pro genetically optimize the indicators on daily data.

If the underlying forces that drive an issue up and down change frequently (like the S&P does), it is unlikely you will be able to set it up by looking for some dominant cycles in the data.

Try applying the indicators to some stocks that have consistent trading patterns (usually sideways!) such as DLTR. You can usually obtain good results with these types of issues, although at first glance many would not want to trade them.
