The Gann SSL Indicator for MT4 is inspired by the legendary trader William Gann, whose trading methods revolutionized market analysis. Gann’s techniques are based on dividing price action into bullish and bearish impulses — allowing traders to ride strong trends while avoiding noise.
This indicator automates that process by plotting a dynamic line that moves along with price action, clearly identifying market direction. Whether you trade forex, crypto, or stocks, the Gann SSL Indicator is a simple yet effective tool to align with the market trend.
The logic behind the Gann SSL Indicator is simple and powerful:
When price is above the indicator line → Bullish trend
When price is below the indicator line → Bearish trend
This visual representation helps traders quickly identify the market bias and act accordingly without complex chart analysis.
