Summary of "🎯Trading Signals Indicator for MT4/5 – [TradingFinder]"
Summary
The video explains the functionality and settings of a Trading Signals Indicator available for MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms via the TradingFinder website. This indicator helps traders identify reversal points and price pivots to generate buy and sell signals for trading decisions.
Key Features and Methodology
- The indicator identifies buy signals during uptrends (higher highs and higher lows) and sell signals during downtrends (lower highs and lower lows).
- Traders are advised to follow signals consistent with the trend and ignore opposing signals (e.g., ignore sell signals in an uptrend).
- Signals appear directly on the chart after dragging the indicator file onto it.
Customizable Inputs and Settings
- Calculation period length: Defines the average price calculation per candlestick.
- Higher values result in more accurate but delayed signals.
- Lower values produce faster but less accurate signals.
- Price step size: Defines the minimum price movement considered a leg.
- Higher values focus on major trend legs.
- Lower values capture minor, short-term movements.
- Number of candles checked after a price leg: Used to identify price pivot points in historical data.

- Alert system:
- Can be enabled or disabled.
- Alerts can be sent as pop-ups, emails (requires prior email setup), or mobile notifications.
- Alert interval defaults to 4 candles, meaning alerts remain valid and active for this duration.
- Users can customize the subject line of alert messages.
Recommendations and Usage

- Adjust inputs based on trading style preference (long-term vs. short-term focus).
