    Buy trigger:
        When you see 9 consecutive closes "lower" than the close 4 bars prior.
        An ideal buy is when the low of bars 6 and 7 in the count are exceeded by the low of bars 8 or 9.

    Sell trigger:
        When you see 9 consecutive closes "higher" than the close 4 candles prior.
        An ideal sell is when the the high of bars 6 and 7 in the count are exceeded by the high of bars 8 or 9.
