The Derivative Forex Signals Oscillator for Metatrader 4 is based on the popular RSI indicator and 3 exponential moving averages with different period settings (3EMA).
The indicator provides short-term trend direction that works very well for scalping and day trading currency pairs.
After loading the Forex indicator to the chart, it appears in a sub-trading window underneath the main MT4 chart.
The Derivative Forex Signals Oscillator is very easy to understand and oscillates above and below the zero (0.00) level.
In order to avoid trading against the overall currency trend, it’s recommended to use together with a longer-term trend indicator.
Only trade in the direction of the overall trend. This will reduce the number of unprofitable signals by at least 50%!
