About The Forex Technical Indicators Used
The Envelopes forex indicator is a technical tool that tries to spot the upper and lower bands of a trading range.
The Kijun_sen_and_envelope custom indicator is an important member of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator family and can be used to identify profitable trends.
The Laguerre RSI oscillator is a brainchild of John Ehlers and it represents a technique used to “warp” ” the time coefficients of a regular EMA filter, thereby resulting in a quicker response.
