Hi, since zigzag value can be zero or no change from bar to bar after trend change, I would like just use color of the indicator as filter for trigger signals. Is this possible? thanks

You can only use the values of the study Subgraphs. Refer to:

Bring up a Spreadsheet and look at the columns. You'll figure out something. I did a year ago when it interested me until all the rewriting became un-nerving. I don't recall what formulas I used but it's there.

I really don't use spreadsheets any more due to deciding if I needed a signal that complex requiring a spreadsheet, I'd be better with something simple.

Long way of saying I don't understand the question. Indicator values are automatically provided when a SS is opened. Glad to help but need clarification.

Cheers

Here are the instructions to use the Spreadsheet Study:

In the case of the Zig Zag study you will need to set the Additional Output for Spreadsheets Input to Yes to see the additional columns of data on the Sheet.
