Tried everything, still have green pool

[carolpotts]

A week later update:
Pool is finally blue with no sign of green anymore. I ordered the k2006 test kit but until then using the accu check strips and tester.
Pool is still very cloudy and I can not see the bottom. Anything I can do for this? Hasn't seemed to change at all even with adding 8oz of a clarifier called sparkle 3 days ago.
I have used a sock in the skimmer and also been using DE powder. Back wash every couple of days. I have not put in any more shock for 4 days now.
My numbers this morning were

ph 7.1
alk 122
chlorine 6.7

Used the 6 way strips and the cya looks like a light orange so not sure on a accurate reading there other than it looking low on the color chart.
I do have stabiliizer in a sock tied to the ladder.
Any suggestions for the cloudiness? Thanks

1. Don't backwash, till the pressure goes up.

2. If the pool is gray/blue with NO green, but still cloudy, it's a filtration problem, not a chlorine or algae problem. (DEAD algae is a filtration problem!)

3. Do go ahead and put 3 - 4 cups of DE in the filter. Do NOT backwash till you see a pressure increase, over the just backwashed pressure. If this does not happen after 2 - 3 days, post that info. (I'd really expect it, after 24 hours).

4. Make SURE the DE is not going back into the pool.

5. If you haven't already, add several gallons of bleach and then carefully brush the pool. There may be unseen pockets of algae that you need to expose and kill.
