SuperTrend draws a single trend line on the chart by trailing an ATR-scaled band above or below the midpoint price (hl2 = (high + low) / 2). The line latches in place each bar — only ratcheting tighter in the trend direction — and only flips when the close crosses to the other side of the opposite band.
Default settings are ATR period 10 and factor 3.0: the band sits 3 × ATR(10) above hl2 in a downtrend and 3 × ATR(10) below hl2 in an uptrend. Lower factors flip more often (faster, noisier); higher factors flip less often (smoother, laggier).
Like every ATR-band trailing stop, SuperTrend is a trend-following tool. It performs well in directional moves and chops itself to pieces in ranges, so it is normally paired with a regime filter.
Formula
upper = hl2 + factor · ATR(N); lower = hl2 − factor · ATR(N) flip to bull when close > previous upper; flip to bear when close < previous lower
Esempio
ATR(10) = 200, factor 3, hl2 = 50,000. Upper band = 50,600, lower band = 49,400. A close above 50,600 flips the line to the lower band and turns the trend bullish.
