How does the " Indicator with Indicator” trigger type work?

The  " Indicator with Indicator” trigger type work?” trigger type lets you compare one indicator against another indicator. It triggers when one indicator meets the condition set against another indicator.

Use this trigger type when you want the system to evaluate a relationship between two indicators instead of checking a single indicator against a fixed number.

What does “Indicator with Indicator” mean?

In the Comparison type field, selecting Two indicators means the trigger is based on one indicator compared with another indicator.

This trigger type is useful when you want to create a condition based on how one indicator behaves relative to another indicator on the selected Symbol and Timeframe. For example, an algo trader can use it to track whether one indicator Crosses above another indicator and use that condition as part of an automated strategy.

Instead of comparing an indicator to a fixed number, this setup checks the relationship between two indicator values. This makes it suitable for strategies where the signal depends on the interaction between indicators rather than a predefined level.
