FAQ

Why did the indicator error out as soon as I added it?

At least one enabled slot timeframe is below the chart timeframe. The default stack starts at 5 / 15 / 60, so this happens often when the script is added to a chart above 5m without adjusting the active slots first.

Is On Bar Close? per slot?

No. In this lite build, On Bar Close? is one global timing switch for the whole stack.

What exactly changes when I turn On Bar Close? off?

The stack stops waiting for confirmed higher-timeframe values and begins following still-forming higher-timeframe values instead. That can make the chart react sooner, but it weakens the history-to-live trust boundary.

Does the blended line mean the market is confirmed?

No. The blend is a weighted summary of active non-zero-weight slots. It can help you read the stack faster, but it does not convert your configuration into certainty.

Why is one active slot not affecting the blended line?

Most likely because that slot's Blended Weight: is 0. A zero-weight slot can still plot, change state, fire alerts, and affect full alignment. It simply drops out of blend math.

What is the difference between blend and full alignment?

Blend asks which side carries more weighted influence. Full alignment asks whether all enabled slots with valid values point the same way. Those answers can match, but they do not have to.

Why is another symbol's line sitting near my chart price?

Because the script maps the outside symbol's MA into the current chart's price region so it stays readable. That is a visibility feature, not a claim that the two symbols are directly comparable in raw-price terms.

Does using another ticker prove confirmation from another market?

No. It can provide useful context. It does not prove correlation, leadership, or trade confirmation by itself.

Which alert should I start with?

Usually one slot Trend Change alert or one Blended MA Trend Change alert. They are easier to learn from than turning on every state alert at once.

Are alerts fully protected from repainting because they wait for bar close?

No. Alerts are chart-bar-close gated, which helps with chart-timeframe noise. But if On Bar Close? is off, the stack can still be using live-forming higher-timeframe values.

Which MA type should I start with?

Start with one MA type across the whole stack, usually the default SMA, until the behavior makes sense. Switching several MA families at once usually teaches less than it feels like it should.

Does "lite" mean I can skip verification?

No. Lite means the surface is smaller, not that the trust questions disappear. You still need to check timeframe compatibility, timing mode, weight participation, and what another symbol is actually adding to the chart.
