Updated KINSKI Flexible Vortex Indicator
The Vortex indicator is based on two trend lines that indicate an uptrend (VI+) or a downtrend (VI-) in the current market. This can be used to determine trend reversals or confirmations of current trends and directions. The number of periods is usually between 10 and 25. This indicator has 14 periods as its default value. You can adjust this value in the settings according to your needs.
A buy signal can be interpreted when VI+ is greater than VI-. Conversely, a sell signal exists when VI+ is smaller than VI-. Whenever a "crossing point" occurs, an imminent trend change can also be anticipated. If the differences from the highs and lows become larger and larger, a breakout is to be expected.
When using this indicator, please note that VI+ and VI*crossings, especially during choppy price movements, can trigger false trading signals.
What distinguishes this Vortex indicator from others of this type?
