How does the automatic trend channel indicator work?

Prices may move in various ways within the trend channel. Distinguish between true and false breakouts. If there is a true breakout, the price moves within the channel for some time and then, at some point, breaks through the resistance line. The proof of a true breakout is when the price converts this resistance line into support. In this case, the trader must pay close attention to the price channel.

We can determine if the breakout is real or not caused by the channel by the number of candles formed when the channel is cut. A real breakout can be seen when the price does not return to its trend channel. Price movements within a trend channel do not encounter resistance lines in an uptrend and support lines in a bearish trend.

In most cases, the price movement is a breakout without confirmation. In such cases, the trader must use additional confirmation signals.
