Perhaps you aren't getting any trades due to a quirk in the MaxBarsBack
calculation... If your strategy doesn't trade on the first, say, 50 bars
(the MaxBarsBack setting), then TS won't take any trades until 50 bars go by
in ALL data series. So if you have fewer than 50 days of intraday data and
your MaxBarsBack setting is 50, you'll get trades when you use the intraday
data by itself, but all your trades will go away when you add daily data as
data2.
Please let me know what the problem was when you finally figure it out.
