Aroon Indicator Lines for Identifying Trend Direction

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The Aroon indicator is presented as a tool for assessing the direction of a security’s trend and the possibility that the trend may reverse. Its two components are Aroon Up, which tracks upward trend strength, and Aroon Down, which tracks downward trend strength.

The document offers only this basic description. It does not explain the calculation, parameter choices, how to interpret line values or crossovers, or how the indicator was tested. It therefore serves as a brief introduction rather than a trading method or evidence of performance.

Key ideas

  • The Aroon indicator is intended to identify trends and possible reversals.
  • Aroon Up represents the strength of an upward trend.
  • Aroon Down represents the strength of a downward trend.
  • The document does not describe entry rules, calculations, or performance evidence.
