I bought Simple Trade Bot months ago and really wanted a Benchmark feature. Upon checking the newer versions I was overjoyed to see it was now a feature.  However I cannot for the life of me get the Benchmark to product any buy or sell signals.  I've messed around using live btc-e BTC USD data from last 14 hours as well as downloaded CTF data.  After 4 hours or trying different signals and settings, I still cannot get the benchmark to show any trades.

So either it's broken in 0.9.0.5 or I'm missing some concept, I've read over the help info many times at this point.  I'd like to actually start using the bot as I've owned my copy and never really made any profit this whole time from when I would try setting it up.

Can someone please maybe provide an example of some indicators with settings that would produce a couple trades in the benchmark so I can atleast start out learning how to use this feature ?  There's no way I'm doing live with automated trading when I see many points there should be trades (many bot signals indicated in benchmark as well that didn't trigger trades either).

One thought I had, if I have an order on BTC-e for selling LTC to USD, but the bot is set to BTC/USD, does it ignore the LTC open order, or will the other currency open orders prevent the bot from doing any trading ??  Also, I wouldn't expect open orders or any type to interfere with the benchmark feature, but you never know I suppose.

If someone would be so kind to toss a couple ideas or settings to illustrate some trades in benchmark that would be great.
Example could be based on the downloadable BTCeBtcUsd60_eta22h.ctf file or this BTC-e capture from the last 14 hours http://ge.tt/5Gkvnq11/v/0?c

Thanks!
