Hey, can someone help me create a lower study that when the macd crossover makes a buy arrow the lower study is set to 1 and stay at 1 till the macd crossover shows a sell arrow which then set the lower study to 0 then holds at 0 till buy arrow and so on?

Add as strategy and it will appear on your chart

input price = close;
input length = 20;

AddOrder(OrderType.BUY_AUTO, MACDTwoLines()."Value" crosses above MACDTwoLines()."Avg", open[-1], 100, Color.YELLOW, Color.YELLOW);
AddOrder(OrderType.SELL_AUTO, MACDTwoLines()."Value" crosses below MACDTwoLines()."Avg", open[-1], 100, Color.RED, Color.RED);

#declare lower
#plot MacDUp = if MACDTwoLines()."Value" crosses above MACDTwoLines()."Avg" then 1 #else 0;
#plot MacDDown = if MACDTwoLines()."Value" crosses below MACDTwoLines()."Avg" then 1 #else 0;
#MacDUp.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);
#MacDUp.SetDefaultColor(color.GREEN);
#MacDDown.SetDefaultColor(color.RED);
