The braid filter is a complex confirmation indicator with three versions, all giving the same signal. The yellow line serves as a volume indicator, and a cross signal must be above the line to give a go signal. The simpler version of the braid filter is an overlay chart indicator that turns candles into histogram bars, where a color change from red to green is a long and a change from green to gray is nothing. A separate exit indicator is recommended for better results.
