The 4 Timeframe ADX Indicator for MT4 is a powerful forex tool that displays ADX values from four different timeframes (D1, H4, H1, and M15) on a single chart. It also includes +DI (green) and -DI (brown) lines, allowing traders to quickly assess Trend Strength and direction across multiple periods. This makes it ideal for scalpers, intraday, and swing traders.
By visualizing ADX values from multiple timeframes at once, traders can identify strong trends and make more informed entry and exit decisions.
How the 4 Timeframe ADX Indicator Works
The indicator plots:
- Green +DI Line – Bullish directional movement
- Brown -DI Line – Bearish directional movement

A reading above 25 indicates a strong trend. Crossovers between +DI and -DI lines generate potential trade signals.
