>I have to figure out a way to backtest that isn't retarded
This is no biggie and nothing complicated. Put widgets to test on chart, one at a time to start. Identify spots where widget said buy and measure (price range tool) the price difference between that price and the price it said to sell. Do it a bunch on lots of different charts. You will start to see the strengths and weaknesses of the widget in question. Maybe it's better for entry signal but not so good at exit timing, or vice versa. Maybe it's useless and you should pitch it in the garbage and try another. Maybe it's slightly off and maybe you can fiddle with the parameters of it (in settings in tradingview) and see if that helps improve.

Keep at this and eventually you will have a group of three or four things all working in tandem that do specific things for you. It's a lot of work but not complicated.
