Ok, that's pretty much what I thought. Now if you used pushpop and these
indicators and strategies are runnin, TS does not guarentee(?) the run
order of the various components. So if A, B, and C depened on each other
how do you coordinate between the items so that if C really wants the
values from A and B before C will issue a signal... how does C know that
A and B have run and have placed the latest values within pushpop?
