The pink middle area denotes an “inactivity zone), where price is believed to be range bound, when the filled and dotted line of the indicator travel through this zone.
- If the orange dots on black line of the i-AMA-Optimum indicator crosses the blue line of the 8 EMA bottom up and stays beneath the 8 EMA line, price is said to be pressured higher i.e. a trigger to go long.
Stop Loss for Buy Entry: Place a stop loss 3 pips below immediate support.

About The Trading Indicators
The i-AMA-Optimum is an optimized version of the Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) that was originally developed by Perry Kaufman and finds use on short and long periods.
The exponential moving average (8 EMA) adds more weight to the latest data and reacts faster to recent changes in prices.
The Laguerre_RSI_with_Laguerre_filter_2 is a custom oscillator indicator that displays an “inactivity zone” i.e. the middle area shaded pink and uses the RSI to gauge oversold and overbought areas.
