Technical indicator Details
STOCH
(Stochastics)
Determines when a symbol has moved into an overbought or oversold position based on high, low, and current price during a certain timeframe. Value of %K is displayed on the panel.
MA
(Moving average crossover)
Determines the trend based on the positions of the short and mid term MAs. Value on the panel indicates when the last trend change occurred.
MACD Determines the trend based on the difference between long and short term exponential moving average (EMA). Value of MACD is displayed on the panel. Since the value is often extremely small, the decimal point is moved up 4 places.
ADX Determines the strength of the trend based on high and low prices during a specific timeframe. Value of ADX is displayed on the panel.
CCI Determines if the symbol is overbought or oversold based on "Typical price (TP)", which is the sum of high, low, and closing price divided by 3. Value of CCI is displayed on the panel.
RSI Determines if the symbol is overbought or oversold based on fluctuation during a specific timeframe. Value of RSI is displayed on the panel.
PSAR
(Parabolic SAR switch)
Determines the trend using a series of dots. Value on the panel indicates when the last trend change occurred.
caution Takes a few seconds to be ready

This indicator requires a complicated series of calculations. It may take a few seconds for the values to appear.

Each technical indicator can be turned "ON" and "OFF" from parameter settings to your liking.

For MA (moving average crossover) and PSAR (parabolic SAR switch), the value displayed indicates when the last trend change occurred, not the indicator itself.

For instance, if MA (moving average crossover) displays a value of "10", it means that the last trend change occurred between the 11th and 10th candlesticks ago.

caution Some parameters cannot be changed

Adjustable parameters of the multi-timeframe trend analysis indicator are mostly the same as the ones found in MetaTrader5. However, certain parameters such as "Applied price field" cannot be changed.

Upward/downward trend signs and analysis mark

In addition to displaying the values of the technical indicators, the tool offers additional features to help you read the market trend.

Upward/downward trend signs

Displays an orange and blue finger mark for an upward and downward trend respectively.

High/low price levels

For the 3 technical indicators (stochastics, CCI, RSI), where information on high/low price levels is important, the value is displayed in red whenever it goes over or under a specified value.

Image with values of the indicators Image with values of the indicators

Use these features to detect trend changes across multiple technical indicators so you can take advantage of another opportunity. Anticipate trend changes using high/low price level alerts.

caution High/low price levels are important for CCI and RSI

Information regarding high/low price levels, shown in red, is extremely important for oscillators such as CCI and RSI. By default it shows an upward arrow when the value is 0+ and 50+ for CCI and RSI respectively, and a downward arrow in other cases. Beware of trend change when the value is displayed in red, regardless of the color of the arrow.

Upward/downward trend signs and high/low price levels will be displayed when the criteria below are met.

Blue (downward): Current PSAR>current rate

Multi-symbol mode is available

To use the multi-timeframe trend analysis indicator, you can choose from two modes: "multi-timeframe mode" and "multi-symbol mode".

Multi-timeframe mode allows the user to display multiple technical indicators for different time frames on a specified symbol, helping you spot signals spread throughout different time frames.

Multi-symbol mode allows the user to display multiple technical indicators for different symbols on a specified time frame. Useful for when you want to monitor multiple symbols simultaneously.

Multi-timeframe and multi-symbol Multi-timeframe and multi-symbol

You can select up to 7 different time frames and symbols. If you only need a few, you can adjust the window width to your liking.

caution Restriction on window width adjustment in MT5

Turn the "Automatically adjust window width" to "OFF" if you wish to adjust the width of the sub-window manually. Note that in MetaTrader5, the parameter must be set to "OFF" when applying this indicator to the chart.

Due to technical reasons, you cannot change this parameter afterward in MetaTrader5. If you had the parameter set to "ON" when applying the indicator, you must delete it and start over. Note that this is not the case with MetaTrader4.
