They have gone from delivering faulty data to, in addition,

All,
Here's a system that works. Its no holy grail but with a little
common sense you'd be hard pressed losing money with it.
Steve posted it a while back (his "lumber" gif) so I can hardly
take credit for the idea, but I think the system is so profitable
that I felt I really ought to champion it a bit. I would characterise
it as being a fairly aggressive short term system, so not everyone's
cup of tea.
I have added a stochastic crossover to its exit which gets it
out just that little bit earlier sometimes. I find that to get the
best signals there is no point in optimising over too long a time
frame (yea I know I'm going to get flamed - heretic, unbeliever)
so I pick a period back where the security doesn't change
character too much and reoptimise if something dramatic happens.
Another trick is to initially optimise coarsely over a very wide range
and select intermediate results that appear to be heading for the sort
of trades that you'd like to see (not always the most profitable). Often
there are many profit peaks and if you initially optimise over too small
a range you won't see the best version for that particular security.
I attach the optimised formula as an Expert to securities that I follow.
The Buy signal is uncanny and the first few times you really wonder
about your sanity.
Enter Long
Cross(opt2,ForecastOsc(O,opt1))
Close Long
Cross(ForecastOsc(O,opt1),opt3) OR
Cross(Mov(Stoch(opt4,3),opt5,S),Stoch(opt4,3))
