Laguerre Filter for Short- and Long-Term Trend Signals

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The document introduces the Laguerre Filter as a smoothing indicator based on Laguerre polynomials. It says the indicator is intended to show both short-term and long-term trend direction, and gives a simple signal rule: consider buying when the line is green and selling when it is red.

The document provides no charts, backtest results, parameter settings, or explanation of how the filter is calculated or how its colors are determined. It therefore offers only a high-level description; it does not establish whether the signal is profitable or how it behaves in different markets. The MetaTrader 4 version and source code are not included, so the described method cannot be reproduced from this text alone.
