Mean Price Indicator

An update for this algorithm is currently pending moderation. Please revisit this page shortly to access the algorithm's latest version.
Description

The Mean Price indicator displays two levels: the average price of all bars of the current day and the average price of the previous day. 

The useful information for trading is to find price zones when the price is above the two levels for long trades and to find price zones when the price is below the two levels for short trades. 

This trade strategy is based on analyzing the trade zones using information produced by the indicator.
