I think the best way to explain this would be to give an example.

The last magnet trendline cross on the nasdaq 100 was on 3.06.01.

The high that day: 2029, the low: 1974.

3.07.01 close: 1996 was inbetween the high/low pivots of the magnet tline cross day so no trade.

3.08.01 close: 1938 was below the 1974 low of the magnet tline cross day so the SHORT trade was initiated. I entered this position on the close as it was obvious the signal would fire. The stop was set at a close above the signal day high (which is also a SAR type stop, IOW, reverse position to long)

If 3.08.01 close had been inside the magnet cross day high/low range the signal would still remain valid for the next day, and the next... on until a entry stop is triggered.

I am going to have to figure out how to catch the game tomorrow. Think you can do some of your fancy engineering to beam it into SCarolina?
