ZZ_Semafor is support indicator that is required for proper work of the strategy.

Regarding the reported errors.
I believe that it is the cause of the known bug.
Restart of the platform should fix things

I've been testing it, but I really didn't get the idea about going long or short. what do you mean by the upper line and the lower line?

Dear Apprentice,

I dowload the ZZ-semaphor indicator and the result is as on the attached pic.

i guess, I'm getting only the indication when we reach the higher (brow part on the pics) but I don't get any indication when we get the lower.

Is it normal or could you modify it to get the both indication.

This indicator is intended only to be a support for the strategy.
If you add it to chart as oscillator, you will see that it has both signals.
The signal for lows is in negative territory.
