MSP Indicator at a Glance
The MSP Indicator is built around the Average True Range (ATR) with a default 14-period configuration, using historical high and low prices to measure average market volatility.Signal logic is defined as follows:
- When the current price moves above the ATR average, the indicator generates a Buy signal, displayed with a blue arrow
- When the current price falls below the ATR average, a Sell signal is issued, marked by a red arrow
Bullish Market Conditions
On the CAD/CHF 30-minute chart, a bullish setup is identified when the MSP Indicator displays an upward blue arrow labeled “BUY”.This signal reflects:
- Strengthening bullish momentum
- Increased buying pressure
- Potential initiation of an upward trend
Bearish Market Conditions
On the GBP/AUD 1-hour chart, the appearance of a downward red arrow labeled “SELL” indicates rising seller dominance.This signal suggests:
