UltraXMA Indicator For MT5
The UltraXMA Indicator For MT5 plots a cloud indicator in a separate pane below price, whose color and value represent the trend direction and strength, respectively. It is based on the XMA indicator, a Moving Average curve that contains a digital filter. Basic signals generated by the UltraXMA Indicator For MT5 are enumerated below: 1. When the cloud color changes to Violet, an up trend is deemed to be in force. Traders can initiate long positions when the Violet cloud reverses from below the 2.00 mark. 2. When the cloud color changes to Orange, the trend is considered to have shifted from up to down. Traders can enter short as and when the Orange cloud reverses from above the 8.00 zone. The UltraXMA can be applied across time frames and asset classes. It seems to perform better during periods when price is trending strongly.
Installing the UltraXMA 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 ultraxma.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.
