ATML: Robot said “sell” Tuesday night, but the order did not go through (Schwab took too long to load the page) and I didn’t notice for a day.  Meanwhile, ATML went back up again, but there was no ”buy” signal because of the SMA(q) rule.  So I decided to continue holding it until the next ”sell” signal.

SRTY: Still not working.  In some cases, it seems that the problem is stop-prices that are too close to purchase-prices, so when I translate the prices from IWM to SRTY the result is an impossible number.
