Trade in the direction of the higher timeframe with confidence.
HTF Bias Filter is a non-repainting higher timeframe bias indicator that projects EMA-based trend direction from any higher timeframe (H1, H4, D1, etc.) onto your lower timeframe chart.
It helps traders filter bad trades, stay aligned with the dominant trend, and improve consistency.
