Template Signal Indicator

6994
This script is an example on how to create a custom indicator that produce start/end long/short deal signals based on configurable conditions from internal and external indicators.
This indicator can be used as an external indicator to other strategies like "Template Trailing Strategy" that will execute the deals and enter the desired positions based on the signals produced by this script.
Combining this script with the aforementioned strategy (or any other compatible) has the advantage that you can backrest the results of your custom deal conditions. Also additional functionality that is provided by the strategy can be utilized (e.g. Take Profit Targets, Trailing Stop Loss etc.).
In this particular example I combined the RSI and Stoch RSI indicators (internal) with the "Trend Explorer" indicator (external) so it produces buy and sell signals based on the logic I defined in the input tab of this indicator. To combine "indicators on indicators" you need Pro+ TV subscription.
The convention I use to communicate the signals is the following (2 -> enter long, 1 -> exit long, -2 -> enter short, -1 ->exit short). However, this convention is also configurable in the consumer/strategy script "Template Trailing Strategy" so make sure that both script "speak the same language" before procced.
