Gann HiLo Signals in Trigger, Continuous, and Combined Modes
Summary
This short description explains a signal based on the Gann HiLo indicator and distinguishes three output modes. Trigger mode produces a signal when price crosses or pierces the indicator, with no signal during other periods. Continuous mode keeps the direction active while price remains on one side: above the indicator indicates buying, while below indicates selling. The combined mode begins with a trigger-style event and then maintains the resulting direction continuously.
The modes are presented as options for combining the Gann HiLo signal with other signals in a larger trading system. The document does not specify how the indicator is calculated, define the meaning of a piercing in operational terms, or provide entry, exit, sizing, and risk rules. It contains no historical tests or performance evidence, so it explains signal behavior rather than validating a trading strategy. Users would need to determine how the mode interacts with other indicators and what execution rules to apply.
Key ideas
- Trigger mode signals on a price crossing or piercing the Gann HiLo indicator.
- Continuous mode maintains a directional signal while price stays above or below the indicator.
- Combined mode uses a trigger event and then continues the signal direction.
- The modes are intended to support integration with other signals, but no trading results or risk rules are provided.
