What you see in the screen is a line than changes colors. In MT4 this is made using two lines but showing one at a time. So when the indicator paints the red line, the green line is painted with a value of empty (not zero) so you don't see it - and vice versa.
In mt4 EMPTY_VALUE = 2147483647
In Metatrader empty is defined as a huge number, so your conditions can be compared to 100000 (or any number bigger that the prices but smaller that mt4 empty - we use 100000)
The indicator code shows this:
SetIndexBuffer(0, Uptrend);
SetIndexBuffer(1, Dntrend);
So uptrend is mode 0
downtrend is mode 1
You did not describe your logic so no idea when you want to buy (the logic in the trading diagram seems odd). If you want to buy when there is an uptrend line, just use
indicator mode 0 < 100000 this tells you the indicator is painting a green line.
If you want to buy when the price is below that line, use
indicator mode 0 < 100000 AND price < indicator mode 0 (use the icon AND to create this condition)
For sell, indicator mode 1 < 100000 tells you that the indicator is painting a red line.
In your strategy you trade using bars, I would not use bid/ask with this indicator and trading bars. bid / ask are used when trading ticks, when trading bars a close price may work better.
