Post From: Spreadsheet trading using a higher time frame as the trend

I am testing trading on a lower timeframe, referencing bars off a higher timeframe, 5 minute chart as the trend using Spreadsheets. The reddish background represents a trend on the 5 minute charts, means go Short. But the Spreadsheet trades Long while the 5 min trend is clearly short (see pic). I have tried setting all studies to Evaluate on Bar Close, Use Earliest Value for Corresponding Chart, etc. Stumped, why is the behavior different than the chart?

Thanks
