Just use the 5 indictor system but have set the background color for 2 of the status of strategy element performance to be the same. Are you using a base and stretch targets?

I use 5 indicators and "hide" the gif icon from one indicator, but i can not hide the value of the indicator...

Mr. bimetrix has got the right idea.

Use the 5 indicator, and pick the two adjacent indicator of your choice to have the same color. Thus making them equivalently 1 indicator. Its a visual trick, but in the end the effect are the same.
