Overview
Signals MA plots this average on the price chart. Breakout signals occur when the close crosses above the moving average from below, and breakdown signals when it crosses below from above. These signals are plotted as arrows on the chart with options to use separate colors for buy and sell signals or the main color. The length, moving average type, and colors are adjustable inputs. The indicator draws all signals directly on the price chart and sends alerts for breakout and breakdown events. It does not include exit rules beyond the signal detections.
