Example of displaying this indicator on the EURUSD hourly chart

This indicator uses the short-term WMA, long-term WMA, and WMA for closing to determine the timing of the crossover trade. For example, a blue arrow is displayed when the short-term WMA exceeds the long-term WMA. In this case, it is a good idea to place a buy order. Conversely, when the short-term WMA falls below the long-term WMA, a red arrow appears. When you see the red arrow, it's your chance to sell.

This indicator also tells you when to exit a trade. For example, if the short-term WMA falls below the WMA used for closing after the blue arrow is displayed, an “☓” will appear on the chart. It is a good idea to close the buy order when this symbol appears. In the same way, if the short-term WMA exceeds the WMA used for closing after the red arrow appears, "☓" will also be displayed to indicate the signal to close the sell order.
