Description & Settings
Trend Vision
is a custom MT4 indicator that combines
MACD momentum
with
Bollinger Bands volatility
to give clear, reliable trading signals.
MACD
shows momentum shifts, divergence, and trend strength.
Bollinger Bands
measure volatility, expansion, and squeezes.
By fusing these two, Trend Vision filters out false moves and highlights
only the high-probability moments
when both momentum and volatility agree.
How It Works (Simple)
MACD checks momentum
(fast vs slow MA).
Bollinger Band math measures volatility
(moving average + standard deviation).
When both conditions align, Trend Vision:

(if enabled).
Shows the shift visually so you can act quickly.
