Description

The Trend Channel Indicator for MetaTrader 4 (MT4) is a Forex indicator that identifies the market trend. It plots equidistant trend lines to form a bullish or bearish trend channel on the chart.

The indicator suggests that the trend is bullish when it draws a channel line in the upward direction, while a bearish trend channel is plotted to the downside, signifying a downtrend. The upper and lower channel lines are resistance and support, respectively.

Therefore, the indicator can be used to identify the market trend condition of an asset. It also provides trend reversal/breakout trading opportunities for scalpers, day/intraday, and swing traders. In a bullish trend channel, for instance, a trader may find a trend reversal/breakout opportunity to sell or buy an asset when the price reverses or a break above the upper line of the indicator.

Features of the Trend Channel Indicator

The indicator plots the bullish and bearish trend channels using gold lines for the upper and lower boundaries and lime-green lines for the middle zone. Also, the inbuilt parameters are open for customization. So, a trader can determine the type of channel line (e.g., straight line) to be displayed.

Benefits of the Indicator

  1. Trend Direction: The indicator displays a trend channel in the direction of the trend, thereby assisting traders to identify the trend direction without hassle.
  2. Support and Resistance: The upper and lower lines of the indicator tend to act as potential support/resistance zones for the price to bounce and reverse. So, a trader may open a BUY or SELL position when price action shows a sign of trend reversal at the lower/upper boundary.
  3. Breakout Signals: The indicator can also be used to identify breakout trading opportunities when the price breaks above or below the upper/lower boundary.

Indicator Description Settings

The indicator comes with the following customizable settings:

Degree: This parameter changes the shape of the trend channels.

Kstd: This shows the value of the standard for trend analysis.

Bars: This determines the number of minimum bars used for trend analysis.

Shift: Determines how the trend channel shifts on the chart.

How to Install

How install MT4/5 indicator in the terminal?

To install an MT4/5 indicator in the terminal, follow these steps:

  1. Download the indicator file (.ex4 or .mq4/.ex5 or .mq5) to your computer.

  2. Open the MT4/5 terminal and click on “File” in the top left corner.

  3. Select “Open Data Folder” from the dropdown menu.

  4. In the window that opens, double-click on the “MQL4/5” folder.

  5. Double-click on the “Indicators” folder.

  6. Drag and drop the indicator file from your computer into the “Indicators” folder.

  7. Close the data folder window and restart the MT4/5 terminal.

  8. The indicator should now be available in the “Navigator” window on the left-hand side of the terminal. Simply double-click on the indicator to add it to a chart.

Note: If the indicator is in a .zip file, you will need to extract it first before following the above steps.

And if asks to confirm DLL?

If the indicator you are installing requires access to external Dynamic Link Libraries (DLLs), you may see a pop-up message asking you to confirm the use of DLLs.

DLLs are external libraries that contain code that can be used by other programs. In the case of MT4/5 indicators, they are often used to perform complex calculations or connect to external data sources.

If you trust the source of the indicator and want to use it, click “Yes” to confirm the use of DLLs. If you are not sure or do not trust the source, click “No” to cancel the installation.

It’s worth noting that some indicators may not work properly without access to their required DLLs. If you choose not to allow access to DLLs and the indicator does not work as expected, you may need to reinstall the indicator and confirm the use of DLLs to get it to work properly.
