The Laguerre_HTF_Signal indicator is a powerful tool for traders using MetaTrader 5, providing clear insights into trend direction and trading signals. This indicator is built on the ColorLaguerre framework, visually presenting trend indications or deal directions right on your chart.
When a trend persists at your selected bar, you’ll see an alert displayed as a filled right arrow. The color of this arrow reflects the direction of the trend, helping you make timely trading decisions.
Indicator Input Parameters
You can tweak the indicator's input parameters to customize the timeframe and financial asset for analysis. If the Symbol_ parameter is left blank, the indicator defaults to the current chart symbol.
