It does sound too good to be true, I agree. And no, I don't account for times when a signal is flashed intraday, then fails to be confirmed at the close. (I do account for days when the signal is surpassed at the open; the trade occurs at the open rather than at the signal.)

I realize that this is a problem, and I do plan to account for it somehow. When I get a chance, I'm going to seperate the signal generating code from the history tracking code. This way I'll be able to differentiate between potential signals (the stop orders), intraday signals (stop order activations) and confirmed signals (new bars).
