Just a suggestion, if you are going to test a lot of indicators,
use one of the simpler ones as a benchmark or use one that you know
about, say that was published somewhere.  Let's call it the baseline
system.  Then you can see if the others outperform or underperform
relative to the baseline.  Also, use the baseline to determine the
stop loss and use this for all the rest.
