A signal describes a condition
A trading signal appears when defined conditions are met. It does not know what the next candles will do. Market behavior can change immediately after a signal appears, even when the display is clear and the settings are automatic.
Read the whole example
In the TAD screenshot below, some short markers are followed by rising candles. That is a useful reminder that a direction label does not guarantee the following move. Target markers elsewhere in the same image do not establish the overall profitability of those rules.
Use a trial to assess the tool
Check whether you understand the signals, can use the settings and know what the alerts mean. Review both successful and unsuccessful examples. A ten-day trial can help you assess usability; it cannot prove future trading performance.
