- When the signal becomes Strong

| Weak Long | When K is rising, D is rising, K is above the D and above zero but D is still below zero OR Show Extremes is enabled and K is crossing the Oversold line from below and D is below K |
| None | When none of the other conditions are valid |
| Weak Short | When K is falling, D is falling, K is below the D and below zero but D is still above zero OR Show Extremes is enabled and K is crossing the Overbought line from above and D is aboveK |
