RC ATR Based Trendlines MT4
- Indicators
- Francisco Rayol
- Version: 1.0
This indicator is the converted Metatrader 4 version of the TradingView indicator "ATR Based Trendlines - JD" by Duyck.
This indicator works by automatically and continuously drawing trendlines not based exclusively on price, but also based on the volatility perceived by the ATR. So, the angle of the trendlines is determined by (a percentage of) the ATR.
The angle of the trendlines follows the change in price, dictated by the ATR at the moment where the pivot point is detected. The ATR percentage determines if the trendline follows the rate of change of the ATR or a fraction (value < 100) or a multiple (value > 100) of that.
