Cycle Lines
Cycle lines are vertical lines plotted at an equal distance representing market trading cycles. To plot these lines a trader chooses one continuous trend & draws a line between the high and low of the cfd trend and then this MT4 indicator automatically draws the cycle line, these lines represent market cycles.
