ATR Signals Metatrader 4 Forex Indicator

    The ATR Signals Metatrader 4 forex indicator is based on the ATR (average true range) indicator and works together with two fast moving average indicators.

    The indicator draws three signal lines in a separate window below the main activity chart.

    A green, blue and red line.

    All signal lines combined all together creates an easy to trade forex system that can be deployed on any currency pair and any timeframe of your choice.

    It is a typical crossover forex system but now with 3 signal lines.

    Use it for scalping (M1, M5), day trading (M5, M15) or for short-term swing trades on M15, M30 and H1 trading charts.

    The default ATR Signals indicator settings can be modified directly from the indicator’s inputs tab. Experiment with its settings.
