- RSI: RSI needs to be pinned TOP for sell and pinned bottom for BUY
- CSS: H4 CSS and H1 CSS needs to be goldenrod or green to set pending buy, reverse for sell
Signal_Buy = Price > 240MA, RSI < RSILevelLow, CSS_H1 = Green, CSS_H4 = Green
Signal_Buy_Pending = Price > 240MA, RSI < RSILevelLow, CSS_H1 = Green or GoldenRod, CSS_H4 = Green or GoldenRod

Play around with the UseIndi to see which works for you, if UseIndi=false does not give you goldenrods, go and use them, if it does, then you are stuck with the ICustom calls which does generate a fair bit of CPUextern bool UseIndi = false;
One important thing to note, the EA is using 1.0.8 which seems to calculate differently from 1.0.7 (refer to the screenshot of EU)
