Strategy based on intelligent Indicator

[Bobin]

I have a custom Indicator which calculates when to enter/exit and colors its line based on that. (Thats why I call it "intelligent".)

What is the recommended way to build a strategy on this indicator?
I do not want to cop/paste the logic of the indicator to the strategy. This would be a "code smell".
The strategy should be able to read the signals from the indicator.

My current implementation is to add a public "List<Signal>" to the indicator and the strategy simply reads this list.
But I think this is boilerplate code.
Is there a recommended way to do this?

I would be glad to look at the indicator to see what you can access from the Strategy Builder if you want to share or you could email if preferred

Hello Bobin,

One solution would be to create a plot that sets a value and use this as a signal.

Below is a link to an example.
