How to use the prevailing trend indicator for mt5?
As you can see on the GPB/USD H4 chart, it looks like a typical crossover indicator.
There are two elements of the previling trend gauge one needs to pay attention to: placement of the lines and the gap between them. Please note that you can customize the params like Period (numeric values) or Method (Simple, Smoothed, Exponential etc.)
When the blue MA intersects above the red MA, a trader is meant to open a long position. Similarly, on reversed alignment is a trigger to open a short position.
The strength of the trend is directly proportional to the gap between them. Wider gap means more powerful bias. On the other hand, when that distance is large it can also mean the potential peak and likely a reversal may come soon.
We think it would be good to apply some additional analysis confirmators to get more comprehensive view.
