Methodology / Trading Framework

The indicator plots the following on the chart:

• An oscillator window below the main chart.
• An orange line representing the selected currency index.
• A red line for the long-term moving average.

Trading signals are generated based on the crossover of the short-term and long-term MAs:

• When the fast MA crosses above the slow MA, it may indicate a bullish trend.
• When the fast MA crosses below the slow MA, it may indicate a bearish trend.

• GBP index declining relative to USD, signaling a bearish trend for GBPUSD.
