Free Forex Trend Indicators

At ForexEarlyWarning we conduct trend analysis using multiple timeframe analysis on 22 currency pairs twice every day. When conducting multiple timeframe analysis the smaller trends are used to enter the larger trends or to observe how the larger trends are built. If a larger timeframe trend is established you would enter the trade when the smaller trends are in agreement with the larger trends and verifying the entry using The Forex Heatmap ™.

Here are the instructions for setting up the free forex trend indicators to follow our plans. These instructions are for a Metatrader platform, however you can contact your broker for setting them up on another charting platform if you wish.

1. Open up a Metatrader platform. If you don't have one go to our partners page and open an account with a Metatrader platform through our partner forex brokers
2. Open up a chart on one pair. One way to do this is to right click on a pair in the quote window symbol area (market watch area) and click on "chart window".
3. On the top tool bars there is an icon that looks like a magnifying glass. You can click on this twice to expand the chart. Some personal choice is involved here.
4. In the "Navigator" area under "Indicators" right click on "moving average", then attach to a chart.
5. Fill in the fields 5, exponential, close, green, line thickness second one from the top.
6. Repeat step number 5 and fill in the fields 12, exponential, close, red and line thickness second one from the top.
7. On the "visualization" tab check "all timeframe's" then click OK.

You now are set up with the free trend indicators on one pair for all 9 timeframes but you must repeat the process for each successive currency pair. It takes about 20 minutes to do 20 pairs, you only need to do it once.

These forex trend indicators are free and these instructions are for Metatrader but they also can be used on any broker charting package available for free from almost all forex brokers. These free trend indicators will work directly with the Forexearlywarning reports.

NOTE: If you would like to use our free trend indicators installed on Metatrader to mimic expensive software here are screen shots to compare with the equivalent time frames. The screen shots can also be viewed as a slideshow in Flickr.

After you inspect the screen shots of the free trend indicators you can use these trend channels to assist with entry into your trades using the Forexearlywarning trading plans. The equivalent timeframes on expensive red and green light software can also be used.

The metatrader platform has free price alarms built into the platform. When the price alarms in the Forexearlywarning trading plans hit just check the smaller timeframes on the free trend indicators along with The Forex Heatmap ™ for entry verification.

Key Idea: When the price alarms in the FEW trading plans hit just check the smaller timeframes in the free trend indicators along with the Forex Heatmap for entry verification.

These timeframe's, combined with good money management will guide you through the entry into the larger trends or developing trends that the ForexEarlyWarning forex forecasts discuss and plan for twice daily.

We have also set up some screen shots of our free forex trend indicators below. These screen shots were set up on a Metatrader 4 platform. Metatrader 4 platforms have 9 different timeframe's built in to their trading platforms along with free desktop price alarms and our forex trade alerts work quite well with them. The screen shots of the free trend indicators also show you how to set up the desktop price alarms on the metatrader platform
