MT5 indicator – Trends indicator for MT5
The Quantum Trading trends indicator is now available for the MT5 platform, and building on the hugely successful MT4 version.
The trends indicator has been developed to help you stay in a trend and describes the trend graphically using coloured trend dots for both bullish and bearish trends. More importantly still are those congestion phases where any trend pauses, and it is here that the trend dots then change colour, and provide an early warning signal of a potential pause or even a reversal in trend.
The trends indicator works for all the markets on the multi asset MT5 platform and for commodities, stocks, indices, cryptocurrencies and of course forex.
Quantum Trends for NinjaTrader (7/8)
An introduction to the trends indicator for NinjaTrader
One of the oldest maxims in trading is ‘let the trend be your friend’. However this is easier said than done! First, you have to identify one, then you have to stay in through all the ups and downs pullbacks and reversals which is – not easy. Staying in a trend to maximise your profits is extremely difficult and in addition, how do you know when a trend has started? It’s very easy to look back and identify the trend. Not so easy at the live edge of the market and this is where the Quantum trends indicator steps in and is the ‘sister’ indicator to the Quantum Trend Monitor indicator.
Together they go hand in hand to keep you in and surfing the trend. The Trends indicator works close to the market and catches the shorter term trend. Then the Trend Monitor steps in to keep you in for the longer term. A perfect match and indeed one we will look at in this series of videos.
The indicator paints a series of dots on the price chart, blue when the trend is bullish, red when a bearish trend has begun, and grey when the market is in a congestion phase. Once a new trend starts, the dots change colour dynamically, from blue through to red, or vice versa, with grey transitional dots when in any congestion phase.
The trends indicators works in all timeframes, and can be fine tuned according to your trading style and approach.
