When creating a strategy how do you tell it to go long/short when the indicator is green/red? do you have to write the code? or can you do it through the strategy wizard?

there are several tutorials on using the strategy wizard that should be able to help you.

I know exactly what you mean. What you are meaning is that you are looking to create a strategy where the parameters in entering a trade is based on a green arrow or red arrow, or a trendline turning green/red.

I have been trying to figure this out as well. I have a MA that turns green/red and would like to creat an Auto Strat that goes in a buy when green and sell on red. I was also trying to figure out how to create a strategy using another time frame as confirmation.

Anybody?

hmm...

when a line is changing colors or an arrow appears, this has an exactly defined + coded reason.

you can reproduce + use this "reason" as conditions in the code (if you know the conditions),
but its not possible to do this / grab this through the wizard easiely just by the color-change / arrow-plot.

so the way would be : find out the condition the arrow / color-change is driven by
& then use / rebuild this code for your strategy-developement.

this means if a color line changes if a MA is rising / falling, you can define this condition in the strategy-wizard for example

many words - lol - i hope you get what i wanna explain
