Trend Indication

Hey Guys, just wondering if you could give me some input on what indicators you find to be the best at detecting trend direction?

Thank you

Definitely moving averages.

Uhh, Personally, I use those straight line thingies.
Sometimes I even use Two of them that contain The Trend.

Sorry, didn't mean to sound condescending, which, of course, I did.

NOTHING {I know of} is going to Accurately Predict a Trend Change.
Trends {and changes in Trend} can only be Identified Once They Reach Puberty.

Now you're dealing with {guess what} A Teenager. If you think It's going to do what you expect...

Good Luck.

I use this indicator on a 4 hr and daily for a quick visual. Like BigMac,, i mean Bemac said a Trendline along with a long term Fibo is the way to go if you want to nail it down.

I use a period of 36 and a method of 0 for the ema and you can have it alert you or not when you get a directional change. Only good for a quick visual,, kind of lets you know when to hold em and when you mabey should start looking for exits.

My best advice, Moving Averages.

Second piece of advice. Buy when you think price will go up.

There is a good article about detecting the trend in MQL5 website http://www.mql5.com/en/articles/248

Can anyone convert trendingclose.mq5 , trendinghl.mq5 , trendingopen.mq5 indicators in MQL4?
