π₯ Scalping Future Indicator for MetaTrader 4/5 β Free [TradingFinder]
Instrument / Platform
- Scalping Futures Indicator available for MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms.
- Primarily designed for trading futures, but can potentially be used for other assets on these platforms.
Indicator Functionality
The indicator helps traders by identifying and displaying buy and sell signals directly on price charts. It analyzes price action patterns to determine trend direction:
- Uptrend: Characterized by higher highs and higher lows β generates buy signals.
- Downtrend: Characterized by lower highs and lower lows β generates sell signals.
- Signals are generated sequentially, meaning no consecutive buy or sell signals occur. This approach helps reduce trading risk by waiting for confirmation of trend direction changes.
Trading Strategy & Risk Management

- Stop-loss: Recommended placement behind the previous swing high or low.

- Holding the position until the next swing point.
