Difference between normal indicator and custom indicator

Hello Alonedevils & undertaker

I did think Wilder introduced the RSI, other custom or similar Relative's came along (Cutler's & Mansfield). There is a lot of "relative strength" indicators that were introduced to the market years before.

Maybe the reason some traders have a dislike towards them ?

The indicators were designed for the (slow) stock market based on its movements over a set period of time or distance etc, we as forex traders have to adopted to a fast flowing market, but like undertaker states new custom indicators are being programmed every day to keep up with the forex market.

Good luck

Hello Alonedevils

Hello peeterwoolf

I like to use the "Moving Average" on my S&P500, plus my own trendlines to gauge the trend. Using the "Daily 200" gives me roughly one full years trend.

It is a lagging indicator, which means it doesn't predict new trends, but adding both (Moving Average & trendlines) together gives that bit of extra edge.

Good luck

The indicators that are available with Mt4 platform are the ones that are normal indicators. While the indicators that you add in Mt4 installed directory are custom ones.
