How can I read the Buffer outputs of this indicator?

[SydneyFox]

I have a custom indicator that I am trying to test by taking trades when the indicator changes colour or changes between buffer 0 and buffer 1.

I have tried 4 different methods of getting the change in values:

1. Buffer 0 equals or doesn't equal buffer 1
2. Buffer 1 equals or doesn't equal 0
3. Buffer1 appears or disappears
4. Buffer 1 is visible or invisible

A copy of the EA can be found here https://fxdreema.com/shared/7bJ36QP9b

Method 3 works most of the time (sometimes the sell trade is delayed by a bar) and method 4 works some of the time (usually the buy trade not often the sell trade).

The indicator is here 0_1547651411834_Dynamic Cycle Explorer of averages.ex4

Can anyone explain if I have something wrong in my logic or why the trades aren't being taken as I think they should be? @miro1360 @fxDreema

The line looks like this:

I think that we can accept that when the green line appears, the pink line is gone. So why do you want to use both lines to detect one signal. I think it's enough to detect the appearance of the green line, or the pink line.

To see what really is going on, I can suggest to put that indicator in Trace blocks and observe it on Visual test. Some indicators repaint, they look one way and after a while they change their past and you can be very confused if you are looking at the results only after the end of the test.
