The Half Trend indicator with Arrows for Metatrader 4 looks similar to the classic Half Trend indicator but this version comes with an alerts system.
The indicator can be used for both trade entries and exits and alerts you when a new trading signal occurs on the chart (signal + arrows).
- A new buy signal occurs when the Half Trend indicator starts drawing the blue signal line.
- A new sell signal occurs when the Half Trend indicator starts drawing the orange signal line.
For best performance, deploy the Half Trend indicator on the lower spread currency pairs during the London and American trading sessions.
From our testing, the indicator does not repaint and works for any currency pair and time frame without slowing down the trading platform.
It can be used as a standalone technical tool or it can be combined with other technical indicators and trading systems.
