Indicator signals
To open a certain trade using the DSL Balance of Market Power JMA indicator, first it is needed to determine the current trend.

In case of a weak trend, namely at the moment of its coloring in a neutral shade, in order to avoid a loss, trades are not opened. At the moment of a trend change, in both cases, trades are closed.

Upon receipt of such conditions, a buy trade can be opened on a signal candle due to the presence of an uptrend in the current market. At the moment of its change or weakening, namely, when the color and location of its main line change, the current trade should be closed and a new one should be considered.
Signal for Sell trades:
- The indicator line has a color with a falling value and falls below the slow signal line.
Upon receipt of such a combination of conditions on a signal candle, a sell trade can be opened. The current trade should be closed and a new one should be considered when the trend changes, namely, upon receipt of reverse conditions from the indicator.
