Fisher Transform Indicator in FX Replay
The Fisher Transform indicator in FX Replay is a powerful momentum oscillator that converts price movements into a Gaussian distribution, making it easier to detect reversal zones and extreme conditions. Its unique transformation highlights inflection points more clearly than traditional oscillators.
How It Works in FX Replay
