Basic triggers

For every indicator, you can find multiple triggers, which are different ways to trade (or create a signal) with the same indicator. Common triggers are explained below.

Cross Level

As soon as the RSI cross up the level 28, a long signal is triggered.
As soon as the RSI cross up the level 28, a long signal is triggered at 18 804$. By default, his duration will be 1 hour (selected timeframe), however you can parameter this with the "Add a new signal duration rule".

In Zone

When the RSI on the 1 hour timeframe is between the level 0 and 30, a long signal is triggered.
As soon as the RSI enters the [0;30] zone, a long signal is triggered at 18 853$. It will be activated (by default) until the RSI leaves the zone (green area).

Sustain above

Place a long signal when the buying volume sustain above 55% during at least 3 hours.
Once the orderflow cross up the level 55, a counting starts. The indicator stay above the selected level during at least 3 candles, a long signal is triggered at the green arrow.

Sustain In Zone

Place a long signal when the MACD is in the zone [-100;-20] during at least 10 candles.
Once the MACD enters the target zone, a counting starts. The indicator stay in the zone for 10 candles, a long signal is triggered.

%/ATR Distance delta

Place a short signal as soon as the Lower band is under the price at a distance between 8 and 10%.
The Lower band enter the zone distance of [8%-10%] away from the price, a short signal is triggered.

Lines Cross

Place a long signal when the signal line cross down the MACD line.
A long signal is triggered once the signal line (discontinuous yellow line) cross down the MACD line (continuous green line), at the green arrow.

Touch Band/Line

The touch band considers the value of the Bollinger (or Band) at the close of the previous candle (since the current value is not known, as it has not closed yet). For better visualization on the TV chart, for this trigger, use a time offset of 1 to graphically visualize the cross.

Place a long signal when the price touch down the lower Bollinger band.
A long signal is triggered once the price touch down the Bollinger lower band (continuous brown line), at the green arrow.

Another example with the VWAP

Place a long signal when the price touch down the support VWAP band.
