Visual PMax Trend Indicator

Visual PMax Indicator is a trend-following indicator for MetaTrader 5 based on PMax logic. It combines a Moving Average with ATR-based dynamic stop levels to help traders identify market direction, trend changes, and possible buy/sell opportunities.

The indicator provides a clear visual view of the current trend directly on the chart. It plots the Moving Average line, the PMax trend line, optional trend area coloring, and buy/sell arrows when a trend change signal occurs.

This tool is especially useful for traders who want a simple and visual way to follow trend direction on symbols such as XAUUSD, Forex pairs, indices, and other CFD instruments.

✅ Works Directly on the Chart
No complicated setup is required. Attach the indicator to the chart and adjust the parameters as needed.

How the Indicator Works

The Visual PMax Indicator calculates a Moving Average based on the selected MA type. Then it uses ATR and an ATR multiplier to create dynamic upper and lower stop levels.

When the market is in an uptrend, the PMax line follows the price from below.
When the market is in a downtrend, the PMax line follows the price from above.

A buy signal appears when the Moving Average crosses above the PMax line.
A sell signal appears when the Moving Average crosses below the PMax line.

The optional trend area helps traders visually understand whether the current market condition is bullish or bearish.
