The Adaptive Laguerre Filter is a smart way to smooth out price data without losing the essential signals.

The cTrader Accumulation & Distribution Line is a popular tool traders use to spot whether a market is under buying or selling pressure. It looks at both price movement and trading volume to show if money is flowing in or out of an asset. When the price rises on strong volume, the line moves up, suggesting accumulation. When the price falls on strong volume, it moves down, pointing to distribution. This makes it especially useful for confirming trends, spotting potential reversals, or noticing when volume doesn't match the price, a clue that something might be about to change.
The Klinger Oscillator utilises volume and price movement to indicate when a trend may be strengthening or weakening. It works by comparing two smoothed averages of a volume-based value, often using 34 and 55 periods.

This can help highlight possible turning points in the market, making it useful for both short-term signals and long-term trend confirmation.
