HMA Indicator For MT5
The HMA Indicator For MT5 is not like a classical moving average that always has real-time calculation issues. With the help of the hull moving average, you can find a unique HMA often known as hull moving average responding to the price movement in a very precise way. When the price of the trading instrument falls, the moving average will also head south confirming the establishment of the bearish trend. On the contrary, when the price starts to gain bullish momentum, the moving average will start trading in the north. To maximize the profit factors by using this tool, you should use it in the daily time frame. Those who know the price action trading strategy can also look for the price action signals in the Hull Moving Average to place their trade. But make sure you never use too tight stops or big volume while trading the market with this indicator.
Installing the HMA Indicator For MT5
After you downloaded the indicator via the form above you need to unzip the zip-file. Then you need to copy the file HMA.mq5 into the folder MQL5\Indicators of your MT5 installation. After that please restart MT5 and then you will be able to see the indicator in the list of indicators.
