The Kalman Filter Metatrader 4 forex indicator is a fast adaptive buy/sell signal line that allows currency traders to trade trends more accurately.
The indicator appears on the activity chart in the form of a dual colored line that alternates its line color between orange and turquoise.
Clearly the Kalman Filter indicator behaves similarly to moving averages but offers better information regarding the current state of price (up or down).
- A turquoise signal line represents a buy trend.
- An orange signal line represents a sell trend.
Use it as a stand-alone buy/sell technical tool or combine with MACD or Stochastics.
