TrendChannel: Drawing Lines Through Nearby Price Extremes
Summary
TrendChannel is a technical indicator that draws two trend lines based on the closest price extremes. The description identifies the indicator’s author and notes that an earlier version was implemented in MQL4 and published in a code library. Its stated function is visual: it marks nearby extreme prices with a pair of lines, which may help a trader inspect the local price structure.
The document provides no calculation details, parameter choices, trading rules, or evidence about predictive value. It also does not explain how the indicator handles changing extremes or whether the lines update as new prices arrive. Accordingly, it offers only a basic description of what is drawn, rather than a tested strategy or a full specification. Readers would need the original implementation or additional documentation to reproduce the indicator and determine whether it is useful for trend analysis.
Key ideas
- The indicator draws two trend lines using nearby price extremes.
