Just a question:
if you have to "confirm the semafor" (because it can repaint) by using some other indicator (that doesn't), couldn't you leave out the semafore and only use the signal of the second ("confirming") indicator (as this seems to give the trading signal)?
It's the combination that piqued my interest. The arrows alone will have you going back and forth all day, so they need something to give you direction. In this case, that something is Xard's semafors (displayed as the sema123 triangle indicator). I think this indicator would fit nicely with just about any system.

And something simple and non-repainting like a trendline/MA (or HH-HL vs LL-LH) wouldn't do the trick for bias?

The XU-MA indicator will answer that question. The semafors are based on 123 and abc patterns, another age old standard.

Maybe you never just looked at Xard's charts in its basic form

Thank you so much for all your efforts. We are always looking for ways to "confirm the semafor" on Xard's charts, this looks to do a great job of that...semafor with a VQ arrow in the direction of the latest major semafor, looks good [url=

Hi! Which indicator are you using that draws out the arrows if I may ask?

Don't have the code anymore and am not remembering how I did the histogram and what all was in the indicator.
