Plotting of signal on the chart

[sultank1]

Hi kernc...
Is there a way to plot on the chart, the signal type(long/short)?

Can you share a bit of your code? Normally, every indicator ("signal") wrapped in Strategy.I() would be plotted automatically.

And see #87 (comment) for a case of plotting a signal that is unavailable at init() but computed in next().

Sorry I must have not explained clearly... is there way to show the direction(BUY, SELL) of the trade on the chart. currently it only indicate profit or loss of each trade on the price line... But I guess it won't be necessary as I can easily calculate that based on if trade resulted in profit or loss. Thanks by the way...

See #676 (comment). The triangles' direction (up/down) respectively indicates long/short trades.

Thanks.
😅 I guess I should have thoroughly read the documentation...
