# @csricksdds

# you have to move your bubbles up and down so that they clear the arrow as follows
# However, before you add or subtract from the bubbles "price location" (which is the second argument supplied to the bubble by you)
# you have to play with the addition and subtraction numbers. you might need 0.25 for a large
# bar close or 0.10 for a smaller bar close. the #'s 0.1 and 0.25 are arbitrary

# pre-Modification
# AddChartBubble(SignalDown, high,  round(close,2)+"\nShort", Color.PINK, yes);
# AddChartBubble(Signalrevbot, low, round(close,2)+"Long", Color.CYAN, no);

# README
AddChartBubble(SignalDown, high+0.04,  round(close,2)+"\nShort", Color.PINK, yes);
AddChartBubble(Signalrevbot, low-0.1, round(close,2)+"Long", Color.CYAN, no);

i use a multiplication factor, so the shape location stays somewhat consistent with different prices.

def vert = 0.002;
addchartbubble( hh, high*(1+vert), "HH", color.green ,yes);

This also put a price within the bubble which I didn't have before? What does it add to the bubble instead of just SHORT?

Is there a difference between roundClose,2) and actual close verses round?

Is there a difference between roundClose,2) and actual close verses round?

round(close,2) is to provide a reference as to where the price was @ the time of your signal. The reason round(close,2) was used is to provide uniformity and save space because at times the price is quoted by the dealer at 4 or more fractional spaces to the right.

It may not have any value to you if you are not keying your profit or loss from the signal spot. You can ignore and remove round(close,2). It was included because it could provide a reference from your signal point.
