About The Trading Indicators

The Dynamic_Price_Channel indicator is a technical tool that can be used to gauge volatility alongside trend.

The Easy-forex-system custom indicator aids traders in determining the directional bias for a specific forex pair within a given time frame. The indicator is comprised of three smoothed moving averages.

The Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) on the other hand is a trend-following momentum indicator that reveals the connection between two moving averages of price.
