CRITICAL BUG FIX: Filters were calculated but NEVER applied to signals!
Bug Discovery:
- User reported: 'when i disable it nothing changes on the chart'
- Investigation: rsiLongOk/rsiShortOk calculated but never referenced
- Root Cause: finalLongSignal = buyReady (missing AND conditions)
- Result: All 7 trades were UNFILTERED despite 'All Filters' indicator name
Filters That Were Broken:
- RSI momentum filter (rsiLongOk, rsiShortOk)
- ADX trend strength (adxOk)
- Entry buffer (longBufferOk, shortBufferOk)
- Price position (longPositionOk, shortPositionOk)
- Volume filter (volumeOk)
- MACD confirmation (longOk, shortOk)
THE FIX (lines 263-264):
BEFORE: finalLongSignal = buyReady
AFTER: finalLongSignal = buyReady and longOk and adxOk and longBufferOk and rsiLongOk and longPositionOk and volumeOk
BEFORE: finalShortSignal = sellReady
AFTER: finalShortSignal = sellReady and shortOk and adxOk and shortBufferOk and rsiShortOk and shortPositionOk and volumeOk
Impact:
- All previous 7 v11 trades were unfiltered (explains poor performance)
- Trade at RSI 73.5 occurred despite max=67 setting
- Previous v11.1 update (rsiLongMin 30→60) had ZERO effect
- This is why toggles had no visual effect in TradingView
User Must:
1. Copy updated .pinescript file
2. Paste into TradingView (replace v11 indicator)
3. Verify filter toggles now affect signals
4. Monitor for 15-20 new FILTERED trades
5. Re-analyze performance (previous 7 trades = unfiltered baseline)
Financial Impact:
- This bug explains the -,000 user mentioned
- Indicator name 'All Filters' was misleading (zero filters applied)
- All filter optimization work had zero effect on actual signals
- Expected: Much fewer signals now (filters will actually work)
