Description & Settings
Indicator that additionally indicates the trend strength with colored dots, based on the standard deviation algorithm.
If the standard deviation of the FineTuningMACandle_Chl_Arr centerline is between the values of parameters dK1 and dK2, then a small colored dot appears on the moving average. Its color is relevant to the current trend direction.
If the standard deviation becomes higher than the value of input dK2, then the dot increases in size. Thus, we get three levels of trend strength indicated.
Weak — no dots;
Medium — small colored dots;
Strong — big colored dots.
The initial indicator candle color is passed by the signal line color.
The indicator uses the classes of library SmoothAlgorithms.mqh (to be copied to <terminal_data_directory>\MQL5\Include). The use of the classes was thoroughly described in article .
