Try.

Thanks the arrows are showing up perfectly. When i run it in the strategy tester the alerts on chart and journal timestamp were different.....is that normal?

Maybe closer to the same with this version.

It looks like it only shows the first transition to buy to sell signal in the strategy tester.....but shows all the arrows on chart im just not sure its giving alerts on all the arrows or not..........in the picture the arrows with the line going through is the one strategy tester shows

Apparently, I totally misunderstood your post and am not able to add an arrow on every single bar outside the keltner bands, sorry for the waste of time. How would this be useful in your trading?

The way you did wouldve worked if alerts worked with the arrows plotted on chart ......dosent have to be every candle as i requested.......it was way to add to position....trend defined on a higher timeframe then i would use the Keltner breakouts to enter or add to positions...

In “ Moving Average Bands” (part 1, TASC July 2021 issue) and “Moving Average Band Width” (part 2, TASC August 2021 issue), author Vitali Apirine explains how moving average bands can be used as a trend-following indicator by displaying the movement of a shorter-term moving average in relation to the movement of a longer-term moving average

This is the "Moving Average Bands" indicator with only one change compared to the original : you can chose the price (while in the original only close price is used)





Recommendations:
* It can be used in a similar way as Bollinger bands
