BetterXTrend Indicator
I have down loaded an indicator from Emini Watch called BetterXTrend for free. Looks like it works pretty well on the charts. Now I am trying to incorporate it in my strategy. I am not able to see the majority of the code because it is a third party software. Trying to check if the indicator is indicating an uptrend or down trend, Also when a trend switches. Any one has an example of how to use the indicator in a strategy ? Thanks

Hello,
Thank you for your note.
Im unfamiliar with the indicator you mention or how you define uptrend or down trend, however if the indicator has a plot like the SMA, you could use something like the following as a condition for whether the current bars indicator value is smaller than the previous bars indicator value. Obviously replacing SMA(14) with the indicator name and any parameters it takes.
Code:
if (IsFalling(SMA(14)) == true){EnterLong();}
Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Thanks for the advice. I think it would take away from the indicator. Here is the link to the indicator if you have any time to look at it.
