BlauCSI_HTF_Signal: Your Go-To Indicator for MetaTrader 5

The BlauCSI_HTF_Signal is an essential tool for traders using MetaTrader 5. This indicator provides insight into the trend direction by analyzing data from the BlauCSI indicator on a selected bar. It visually indicates the trend or trading direction with color-coded signals and even sends alerts and audio notifications straight to your smartphone when it's time to make a move.

However, keep in mind that the indicator will only send alerts and push notifications if the input parameter:

input uint SignalBar=0;                                // The bar number to get a signal (0 - current bar)

is set to greater than one. If you're on the zero bar, sound signals and push notifications aren't very effective since the indicator's signal can change and vanish!

All input parameters can be broken down into three main categories:

1. BlauCSI Input Parameters:
