CALL and PUT: how a signal's direction is marked

Two labels in the interface and the difference between a trade's direction and its result.

Short labels are convenient when their meaning is clear. In this piece we separate a signal's direction from the outcome of a completed record.

Two labels

In the SignalAI layout, the direction is marked with the text CALL or PUT. CALL stands for an upward direction and PUT for a downward one. The text adds to the colour, so the label can be read without it.

Direction and result

A record's direction is not its outcome. In a completed record, the result has its own field. Read it separately from the CALL or PUT label.

Check the other fields

The asset name and the time parameters remain part of the same record. A direction label without these fields gives only part of the information.
