Thread: SinTrend - Vertex FX indicator

The SinTrend is a simple yet powerful vertex FX indicator that detects market cycles using trigonometric functions. It is very useful in cyclical markets, especially in determining the turning points.

It is calculated by subtracting the current candle close from the close of reference candles ago. This value is divided by the reference number of candles, and then the trigonometric sine value is calculated.

M1 Period - 110 candles.
M5 Period - 90 candles.
M15 Period - 60 candles.
