The Hi Lo Forex scalper is an excellent indicator built for Metatrader 4 that is somewhat based on the Half Trend indicator.
The indicator draws a buy & sell signal line on the chart that changes color whenever the trend turns.
Hi Lo is always trading in the market, either with a buy or sell position.
Buy & sell signal:
- Open a buy position when the green signal line starts printing on the chart
- Open a sell position when the red signal line starts printing on the chart
Use on the M5 and M15 chart for scalping and day trading purposes.
From our testings, 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.
