Deep_Fractal_Signals_and_Rubber_Band_Trades
This indicator is based on Williams Fractals and the TopDog Trading "Rubber Band Trade"
The Deep Fractal Signals are triangles that indicate the price is forming a pattern of decreasing lows in a down trend (orange) or, increasing highs in an up trend (green).
The triangles are placed above or below the last bar of the pattern, unlike Fractals which are drawn 2 candles prior to the current candle, and are re-painted on the chart.
When the triangle is indicated above the moving average in a down trend (blue), or below the moving average in an up trend (yellow), this is a Rubber Band Trade.
When the slope of the moving average is less than the Gain set by the user, or are counter-trend, the triangles are plotted in silver.
When used in conjunction with the Power Analyzer indicator, a signal to the long side should be taken when the Power Analyzer momentum indicator is at a cycle low. Similarly, a signal to the short side should be taken when the indicator is at a cycle high.
The first, second or third signal in a new trend have the highest probability of a follow through.
The indicator sometimes gives a false signal at the very end of the trend, just before the market reverses. This is an attempt by the Market Makers to persuade traders that the trend will continue.
