Here is the Logic. the candle in which the ma 4ma cross 5ma show arrow on crossing candle and give alert on new bar so next candle to be taken on 4ma direction.

I have this made from free eabuilder and having issue getting alert delay.

need someone to guide. am not a coder/ Thanks and I appreciate.

My goal is to have

1. arrow appear on crossover during 5min candle if it cross during that and stays on same candle.

2. alert opened up if arrow stayed after crossover and as soon as new candle formed so there is no mismatch timing.

this is for only 5min candles.

i am having problem of getting notification in middle of running candle instead. can anyone guide ?
