Overview

Taught to Trade - WaveTrend Audit plots the dual oscillator lines, their difference area, and configurable overbought and oversold thresholds. Bullish and bearish crossovers are highlighted, with an option to restrict marks to confirmed bar closes. An on-screen audit table displays historical statistics, including how frequently the oscillator breached threshold levels, total crossover counts, and median bar intervals between crosses.

Third-party code. ForexR did not write, test or endorse this script, and the summary above was generated automatically from its code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints.
