I tried your code and added
SetChartOptions( 0, chartShowDates|chartWrapTitle );
GraphXSpace=10;
_N(Title = "{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} "+_DEFAULT_NAME()+" : {{OHLCX}}
{{VALUES}}" );
Plot( C, "", colorGrey50, styleBar );
PlotShapes( shapeUpTriangle*Cond1, colorYellow, 0, L, -20 );
PlotShapes( shapeUpTriangle*Cond7, colorBlue, 0, L, -30 );
PlotShapes( shapeUpArrow*Buy, colorGreen, 0, L, -10 );
PlotShapes( shapeDownArrow*Sell, colorRed, 0, H, -10 );
StochD does not go below 25 within 7 bars prior to 14th March 2006. 1st
March is last bar that Cond7 is true
Remember StochD is the slower stochastic (red line on your chart)
