📈 Super Trend EA – Advanced Trend Direction Tool with EA Buffer Support

Super Trend EA is an enhanced version of the classic Super Trend tool, redesigned for professional traders and algorithmic developers.
It provides a clean, reliable way to identify bullish and bearish market trends using ATR-based volatility analysis and dynamic trend filtering.

Unlike standard indicators, this upgraded version includes an additional buffer (index 2), which outputs a clear numerical value:

• 1 = Bullish Trend

• -1 = Bearish Trend

This unique feature allows you to integrate the Super Trend Indicator directly into Expert Advisors (EAs), enabling automatic trend recognition for trading robots, filters, or confirmation logic.

Therefore, this indicator bridges the gap between manual and automated trading, offering both simplicity for visual traders and power for developers who want to code professional-grade systems on MetaTrader 5 (MT5).

⚙️ How the Super Trend EA Works

The Super Trend algorithm is based on the Average True Range (ATR), which dynamically adapts to market volatility.
As a result, it provides accurate, real-time identification of trend direction while automatically adjusting to different price conditions.

Furthermore, the enhanced version for MT5 delivers:

• Real-time trend switching, with no repainting or lag.

• Accurate buffer output, allowing direct use in EAs and scripts.

• Full multi-timeframe compatibility, from M1 scalping to monthly swing trading.

In addition, this Super Trend Indicator visually plots green and red trend lines, making it easier to follow long and short market phases.
Traders can use these visual cues for manual decisions, while developers can use buffer values for automated rule-based entries and exits.
