Problem in creating arrows for an indicator

[Arad016]

hello
although i am registered here for a long time but i recently started doing stuff on fxdreema so i am totally newbie and dont know a thing , a lot of you might think i am asking stupid questions but , ah well , i am gonna go ahead and ask it either way

so here is the problem i am trying to build an indicator that is suppose to show an arrow on main chart after a certain condition is met but i dont know whats wrong , arrows arent appearing i thought that something is wrong with the placement or my condition so i tried to make a simple crossover indicator that shows an arrow when two Moving Averages crosses but still the same problem so i was wondering if anyone can take a look at below screenshot and tell me if i am missing something , if i am doing it the wrong way! many thanks in advance

Try this:

This block create 1 object per bar = No
redraw the current object = Yes
Prefix/Name = write something that you want to call it , arrow up for example

the arrows i saw were from backtesting , they dont come up that much especially on higher timeframes , they will show eventually on live charts to , you just have to give them time
