Usage

Trend Filter helps:

• Filter out false signals against the trend
• Increase entry accuracy
• Improve the ratio of profitable to losing trades

Tip: Multi-timeframe trend filter is recommended to use almost always, because increasing the timeframe for trend determination is the foundation of trading. We need to focus on the global trend, because the trend is your friend (trend is your friend). For volatile markets (e.g., cryptocurrencies), try higher timeframes (4H, 1D) for Trend Filter to filter out false signals. Auto mode automatically selects the optimal timeframe for trend analysis.
