How to read signals from the Camarilla Alert Fibs Indicator

In practice, this indicator highlights a configurable rule set that fires when conditions align. Next, a typical workflow looks like this.
Entry idea (long). Wait for a long signal arrow on the configured rule set and confirm with the bar close. Then, wait for the bar to close. Intra-bar values can shift.
As a result, Entry idea (short). Wait for a short signal arrow on the configured rule set and confirm with the bar close. The same close rule applies.
Exit idea. A stop placed beyond the most recent swing point and a target at the next reaction level keeps risk readable from the start. Some traders trail with structure. Others trail with the indicator itself.
These are concepts, not rules. Also, still, yet, backtest on your instrument and timeframe before live capital.

- H4 for confirmation and swing trades.
