What you now see, is that you have 3 signals, but what you are missing is that Metastock can only show 1 signal on any given bar.
So in order for metastock to show the correct signal, you have to set up the signals in the correct precedence signal a for both conditions true has to be listed first, signal b for the candle only to be true second and finally signal c for only the fractal to be true is listed third

In the Expert listing place the most restrictive one first, the candle and fractal. The next two would be in your order of preference. I would tie the fractal and candle formulas together with a "AND" condition.
