Let's take this back to Best Charts basics: 1. Best Charts does not "issue signals".
2. Each time you enter a stock symbol and create charts in Best Charts, Best Charts goes out to Yahoo and fetches a fresh download of data. 3. This means that, if Yahoo changes their data one minute after you look at a chart, and all the signals created by those charts, then you fetch the data again, the change in data may change your charts and likewise, the signals. 4. Yahoo often does not "lock" the data for a day until very late. During the early evening hours it is not unusual to see it change. 5. With Best Charts the data is dynamic, always updated when used. 6. That is why you might see one signal tonight, another tomorrow morning. It is an indication that Yahoo changed their data. 7. You might say, "Why can't I lock the data so it doesn't change on me?" (You could by saving a file of the data) 8. To which I would reply, do you want to use old data or corrected data?
