Multi Andrew PitchFork 5

      Essentially, Andrew’s Pitchfork is a tool for drawing price channels. While two lines surrounding price are usually enough to draw a channel, the Pitchfork has an extra line. It is the median line or the handle of the Pitchfork.

    The median line is central to this trading method. This is why Andrew’s Pitchfork is also known as the Median Line Method.
