    About The Trading Indicators

    The TSI-Osc.ex4 indicator for MetaTrader4 is also known as the True Strength Index oscillator and has remained quite popular among currency traders.

    William Blau designed the True Strength Index oscillator in 1991 and has since been used to spot trend, along with overbought-oversold zones, which can be implied to intraday timeframes as well as longer-term outlook.

    The Cynthia’s_Trend_Bars.ex4 is a custom indicator that uses special color coded bar to replace price bar. The dark green coded bar depicts a bullish signal, while the purple coded bar portrays a bearish signal.

    Finally, the Custom Moving Averages indicator is used to spot the direction of trend or it can also be deployed in defining possible levels of support and resistance.

    This indicator is supported on all timeframes, as such traders can use it on any strategy of their choice.
