Instrument

  • Trade By Levels Indicator for MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms.

Functionality

The indicator automatically draws a price channel on the chart based on recent price action and identifies price peaks to generate three types of trading signals:

  • Reversal signals: Occur when price moves against the channel trend (e.g., a downward breakout in an upward channel).

  • Retracement signals: Occur when price pulls back within the channel trend (e.g., a buy signal at the bottom of an upward channel).

  • Breakout signals: Occur when price breaks out above or below the channel boundaries.

The indicator provides clear trade execution levels, including:

  • Entry point
  • Stop-loss
  • Take profit (TP)

Example: A bearish breakout signal triggers a sell stop order on a downward channel break, with defined stop loss and take profit levels.

Customization and Settings

The indicator offers various customizable parameters to tailor its behavior:

  • Calculation timeframe: Select the candle timeframe used for channel calculation.

  • Number of candles: Defines the channel length; a higher number creates a longer-term channel, while a lower number results in a shorter-term channel.

  • Price basis: Choose between close price or median price (average of high and low).

  • Shift parameter: Number of recent candles ignored to stabilize the channel and reduce noise, allowing trading on established trends.

  • Channel width: Adjustable width of the main channel and midline.

  • Channel extension: Project channel lines into the future by a specified number of candles.

  • Period length for price average: Controls signal sensitivity; a higher value results in delayed but more reliable signals, while a lower value produces quicker but less confident signals.

  • Alerts: Enable or disable alerts on signal generation, with options for:

    • Desktop notifications
    • Email alerts (requires setup)
    • Mobile notifications
  • Alert interval: Default set to 4 candles, meaning alerts remain valid for 4 candles after being triggered.

  • Customizable alert message/subject

Use Case

The Trade By Levels indicator helps traders confidently place orders with predefined entry, stop loss, and take profit levels based on channel signals. This aids in risk management and improves trade execution.
