The Trend Trading Indicator MA Filling is a tool that fills the area between two moving averages with color.
This feature was implemented in the MT5 terminal, but for a long time, MT4 lacked this functionality or made it cumbersome to implement and did not guarantee a good visual effect.
A simple solution to this problem is now available using the Easy Canvas library (found in the archive). To use the indicator, place the library in the \MQL4\Include folder.
