The Sign of the Cross always designates NOT PROTESTANT as much as it designates Catholic. I'm not sure that too many Protestants, know OR care WHICH way the Sign of the Cross is made. They don't do it so why should they care?

Any views here?

I deeply respect my brother’s and sister-in-law’s making the sign of the cross. Jesus loves us all.

The Sign of the Cross existed in both the East and the West long before Protestants even came on the scene. It was not meant to distinguish Catholics.

Protestantism arose almost 1500 years after the founding of the Church, and because Protestantism is very similar to Islam in rejecting traditional images and symbols, it was the Protestants who rejected the Sign of the Cross.

Many Lutherans make the sign of the cross, and most people consider Lutherans to be Protestant.

I can’t speak to other denominations.
