Symbols and Alerts Legend

Introduction — What this table is for

Use the table below as a quick-reference legend to every visual cue produced by the Lorentzian Classification Premium indicator. Each row groups a symbol by its trading Category (Entry/Exit, Continuation, Mean-Reversion, Deviation, or Context) and shows:

  • an inline SVG icon that mirrors exactly what you see on the chart,
  • a plain-language description of how the symbol is drawn and what it means in live trading,
  • the Alert Identifier—the precise condition name you’ll select in TradingView’s Create Alert dialog to be notified when that event occurs.

If you ever wonder “What does this arrow/triangle/dot mean?” or “Which alert should I pick for it?”, this table is the authoritative answer.

Notes on using the Alert Identifier column

To create an alert corresponding to any of these symbols:

  1. Open TradingView’s Alerts → Create Alert while the indicator is on your chart.
  2. In the Condition dropdown select Lorentzian Classification Premium, then choose the precise text shown in the Alert Identifier column (e.g., “Open Long ▲” or “Price Far Above Kernel”).
  3. Set Trigger to “Once per bar close” so the alert fires just after the candle that created the symbol has completed.
  4. Save the alert—TradingView will now notify you whenever that symbol appears, subject only to the platform’s normal near-real-time delivery.

Rows marked N/A have no dedicated alert; they are visual aids only.
