New here, slight algae problem that won't leave

[Sykoi]

Okay well thanks to some advice I read on the forum, and your posts I (had) cleared my pool up... I shocked the pool with a good deal of chlorine, scrubbed it out, and the water was clear after a few days.
However, a week or so later we had some heavy rain for a few days and afterwards (Or during :P), the pool water was... Green, and its been getting greener ever since.
The chlorine levels are higher than 10 (Based on my test strips) and for some reason the pool filter (Which I replaced) isn't making any difference at all.

Any clues as to whats going on and how I can fix this?

Algae results from insufficient chlorine levels. You must shock your pool to the appropriate level (we need CYA results), maintain that shock level 'til your pool clears, then maintain a chlorine level sufficient to prevent algae.

Your algae issue is easily correctable but it will take more chlorine (and consistency) than you have been using and accurate test results for anyone here to recommend what that chlorine level might be.

The pool filter will clean your pool after you kill the algae but will not clear live algae from a pool.

First please post a complete set of test numbers. You need a DROPS-BASED test kit - since you have chlorine that needs to be high to kill the algae - one that has an FAS-DPD chlorine test will be the best. Or you can purchase a 6-way test kit at Wal-Mart - you would need to dilute your pool water with distilled water to test above 5ppm.

The "guess"-strips will not be accurate enough for us to give you accurate advice.

We need to know:

FC (free chlorine)
TC (total chlorine)
PH
TA (Total Alk)
CH (Calcium Hardness)
CYA

We need the actual numbers - not "adequate/good/in range/a little low...."
