The Kangaroo Tail is a multi-bar pattern.
The Kangaroo Tail is both simple and very effective pattern to trade.
The strategy that comes with the Kangaroo Tail is based on price action.

The indicator does what he was designed for: displaying Kangaroo Tail patterns. Don't expect to follow the up and down arrows and make money. Trading is not that simple. The Kangaroo Tail pattern is a starting point. The arrow is not a confirmed BUY and SELL signal in itself. The Kangaroo Tail indicator alerts you that the market might be at a turning point now. Then you must use other elements of your strategy (trend, momentum, support/resistance, volatility, daily bias, and other indicators) to confirm the signal and place a trade.
