About The Trading Indicators

The Kijun-sen+ custom indicator is a significant member of the the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator family and can be used to measure medium-term momentum.

The 36 EMA is an exponential moving average that has its period set at 36 and reduces the lag by adding more weight to recent price.

The Robby DSS Forex is an oscillator indicator that blends the stochastics and the exponential moving average to form oversold (below 20) and overbought (above 80) zones within its indicator window.
