dear Formulaprimer,

Think Rainbow? 

The ribbon feature in an expert is designed to display a TRUE or FALSE
result,not a running count like an indicator.

here's an example of a system that generates a binary signal +1.-1,else 0

if the close is greater than the 10 ma and the close has been above the 65 day ma for at least 3 days then long and the reverse of that for a short

Buy:=If(C>Mov(C,10,S) and Sum(C>Mov(C,65,S),3)>2),1,0);
Sell:=If(C<Mov(C,10,S) and Sum(C<Mov(C,65,S),3)>2),-1,0);
Signal:=Buy+Sell;
Signal;

in the bullish tab"color green""text Bull" enter

Buy:=If(C>Mov(C,10,S) and Sum(C>Mov(C,65,S),3)>2),1,0);
Sell:=If(C<Mov(C,10,S) and Sum(C<Mov(C,65,S),3)>2),-1,0);
Signal:=Buy+Sell;
Signal=1

in the bearish tab"color red""text Bear" enter

Buy:=If(C>Mov(C,10,S) and Sum(C>Mov(C,65,S),3)>2),1,0);
Sell:=If(C<Mov(C,10,S) and Sum(C<Mov(C,65,S),3)>2),-1,0);
Signal:=Buy+Sell;
Signal=-1

the bullish trend will show when the system is long,
the bullish trend will show when the system is short
and the remaining ribbon will show when you are out of the trade
