If I can get this completed I can simplify my strategy even further by eliminating the 2000t chart

@blakecmathis Ok, I looked through the code you posted, it appears that the embedded logic was a bit complex and confusing. Hence I cleaned up the code, modified the logic, rewrote portions of the underlying engine, added state transitions, implemented buy/sell signals and arrows as well as gave it a new coloring structure.

You can find the revised code here. It is almost a complete revamp so I have called this version 2.0
Hope this is what you were looking for

Chop Update: Been a pretty slow day so far with relatively low volume and little price action aka a whole lotta chop. Managed to make a couple of small plays.

Tougher AM for me trading the /ES. Tried 1 long, got stopped out. Zoomed out and just accepted the downtrend channel, lower lows and break of my marked levels of support. 3,114 finally held.
 
Looking back at today this was one of the best available plays right before the market opened. FE bottomed out, Sell signals across the board, and CCI confirming the move. Damn this would have been a solid short.

I don't wanna be Captain Hindsight or anything but these ascending, descending, and symmetrical triangle formations occur almost every single day with ES. I wasn't aware of this pattern until @skynetgen mentioned it today. Time to add a tool to the toolbox. Seems to be a pretty good indicator of a breakout.
