What it does
Emits an alert when the gate fires; it does not place any order.
What happens
Fires when its gate input is true — or every candle if it has no gate — and translates into an order or position change in the backtest and live engine.
When to use
Watch a condition or paper-signal without entering the market.
Gotchas
- No gate wired = it fires every candle.
- It never opens a position — pair it with an entry if you want a trade.
