I've been trying for the build sign in version 2. However this is getting executed in version 4. Can someone help me with this in version 2? Thank you so much
// Determine currently LONG or SHORT
isLong = nz(isLong[1], false)
isShort = nz(isShort[1], false)
// Buy or Sell only if the buy signal is triggered and not already long or short
buySignal = not isLong and buy
sellSignal = not isShort and sell
if (buySignal)
isLong := true
isShort := false
if (sellSignal)
isLong := false
isShort := true
plotshape(series=buySignal, text='Buy', style=shape.labelup, location=location.belowbar, offset=0, color=#009688, textcolor=#ffffff, size=size.small)
plotshape(series=sellSignal, text='Sell', style=shape.labeldown, location=location.abovebar, offset=0, color=#F44336, textcolor=#ffffff, size=size.small)

Upgrade your script to v5
and get rid of isShort
, you don't need it.
//@version=5
indicator("My script", overlay=true)
_sma = ta.sma(close, 9)
buy = ta.crossover(close, _sma)
sell = ta.crossunder(close, _sma)
// Determine currently LONG or SHORT
var isLong = false
// Buy or Sell only if the buy signal is triggered and not already long or short
buySignal = not isLong and buy
sellSignal = isLong and sell
if (buySignal)
isLong := true
if (sellSignal)
isLong := false
plot(_sma)
plotshape(series=buySignal, text='Buy', style=shape.labelup, location=location.belowbar, offset=0, color=#009688, textcolor=#ffffff, size=size.small)
plotshape(series=sellSignal, text='Sell', style=shape.labeldown, location=location.abovebar, offset=0, color=#F44336, textcolor=#ffffff, size=size.small)
