triggercandle
(default = previous) — the candle to issue alerts on: previous — the most recently closed candle or current — the yet unfinished candle. as you can see, this indicator gives direct signals for buy (blue arrow pointing up) and sell (red arrow pointing down). you should know that you should not enter the trade if the signal is contradicting the current general trend. if it is uptrend and you get a blue arrow — go long, if you get a red arrow — do nothing (just close your long position if you had one open); if it is downtrend and you get blue arrow — close short position but don't go long, if you get red arrow — go short; if chart goes sideways and you get blue or red arrow — feel free to go long or short respectively. i recommend setting your stop-loss directly at the level where the arrow is drawn (it is displayed if you point your mouse at it).
