Clarification
(1) Runs inside a strategy
(2) It's an indicator that allows a position to be taken if the strategy buy condition is met & on the flip side an OR statement is integrated into my looping exit strategy.
(3) As system traders we don't enjoy the benefits of being discretionary - when the indicator is GREEN it allows a position to be taken as per the strategy conditions - when the indicator is RED we get a forced sell.

How effective is the indicator
The indicator works extreme well, not perfect because of the inherent lag. Overall I'm very impressed.
