"I therefore conclude that while the weekly MACD VTO buy blocker will eliminate the bad VTO trades it will also eliminate the vast majority of VTO trades as these occur during trading range markets."
Why are you assuming this? If in a trading range, the MACD on the weekly could very well be chopping around above the zero line, which wouldn't eliminate the good VTO trades.
