Adaptive Trend Flow (ATF)

Adaptive Trend Flow (ATF) is a custom trend-following indicator designed to work reliably across all markets and all timeframes.
It uses an adaptive moving average that automatically adjusts to market conditions, combined with trend slope analysis and a volatility filter to reduce noise during ranging periods.

Unlike traditional fixed moving averages, ATF reacts faster during strong trends and slows down during consolidation, helping traders stay aligned with meaningful price movements.
