The Simple Forex Trend indicator for Metatrader 4 works similar to the ADX technical indicator and delivers trend-following trading signals for any currency pair.
The indicator pops-up on the chart as two colored lines that cross each other as soon as the underlying trend turns in the opposite direction.
The Simple Forex Trend indicator is newbie friendly and does not require additional technical analysis.
Buy & sell signal:
- Open a buy trade when the green signal line crosses back above the red signal line.
- Open a sell trade when the red signal line crosses back above the green signal line.
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 strategies.
