The Awesome Oscillator for MT4 is a popular trading oscillator used in Forex trading.
It’s composed of green & red colored histogram that appears in a sub-MT4 window underneath the main trading chart.
Interpret the Awesome Oscillator Indicator as follows:
- The trend is considered bullish when the Awesome Oscillator indicator turns back above the 0.00 level from below.
- The trend is considered bearish when the Awesome Oscillator indicator turns back below the 0.00 level from above.
Tip: It’s advised to combine the Awesome Oscillator with a longer-term trend trading indicator to maximize profits.
You could combine it with a 125 EMA, 200 SMA or with any other trend trading indicator you like to trade with.
Here’s an example for better understanding:
When price trades above the 125 EMA trend indicator, the underlying currency trend is considered up.
Now, in order to avoid most false signals, only trade signals from the Awesome Oscillator in the direction of the underlying uptrend.
It means you’ll only trade the positive Awesome oscillator crosses and avoid the negative crosses.
Vice versa when the underlying trend is down.
Deploy the Awesome Oscillator indicator for scalping, day trading and swing trading purposes.
