Your charts are very nice, clean, simple. Great job.
I'd like to see more of your daily charts if you don't mind taking some shots here and there as the days go by. We have a forum just for that: [B]Daily charts and profit/loss reports[/B]
I think it will depend on if you want an auto-strategy or a mechanical strategy.
For instance, instead of spending your life trying to program "chop", you can just watch the chart. If you are in chop, then don't have the strategy running. Once you exit, turn the strategy back on. This is the approach I favor. Roonius has something called Discretionary Buttons which put buttons right on your chart to make this incredibly easy, much easier than manually adding/removing a running strategy.
What I do in order to make my strategies not "jump in" is something like this:
I don't have Ninja up so I had to adlib some of that, but you get the idea. Basically, once you EXIT a position you want the "signal" to change to "justexited". Then you can test for that, and make sure you have a valid NEW setup, not just a continuation of a previous setup.
Make sense?
As for pullbacks, you can record the value of one of your primary signals (say the DMA adxvma line), and then compare price to that value. If price has moved a certain distance you could consider it a pullback, etc.
