The market mood is judged by the slope of the linear regression and price being below or above this line. Regression line breakthrough by the indicator line may serve as a market entry signal.
There is possibility of setting the color for bullish and bearish sentiments of the basic indicators as well as plotting three regression lines with different periods.
The indicator can be used in combination with Linear Regression MTF, Strongest Level, Fibo Levels or others.
Possible application methods are shown on the screenshots and video.
