The Smoothed Repulse 2 Indicator for MT5 is a powerful momentum and sentiment tool that measures the push of each candle and visualizes it as a smooth curve. Unlike traditional indicators such as RSI, MACD, or Stochastic, this indicator focuses on trader confidence and market perception, providing deeper insight into market trends and momentum.

Key Features of the Smoothed Repulse 2 Indicator
- Quantifies market momentum and trader confidence
- Visualizes pressure with a smooth oscillator curve
- Identifies overbought and oversold conditions
- Generates trade entry signals based on Repulse line behavior
- Works on multiple timeframes and markets
- Compatible with MetaTrader 5 (MT5)
How the Smoothed Repulse 2 Indicator Works
The indicator has two main components:
- Zero Line – the reference level for market momentum
- Repulse Line – an oscillator line that fluctuates above and below the zero line
Interpretation of the Repulse Line:
- Above zero line → Rising buying pressure
- Below zero line → Rising selling pressure
When the Repulse line reaches extreme values above the zero line, it indicates overbought conditions, potentially signaling a sell opportunity. Conversely, when the line falls far below zero, it indicates oversold conditions, suggesting a buy opportunity.
Buy Signal
A buy signal occurs when:
- The Repulse line falls below the zero line (oversold condition)
- Momentum begins to reverse upward
Trading idea:
- Enter a buy trade when the Repulse line starts moving up from the oversold zone
- Place stop loss below the recent low
- Take profit near resistance or when the Repulse line approaches overbought levels
Sell Signal
A sell signal occurs when:
- The Repulse line rises above the zero line (overbought condition)
- Momentum begins to weaken
Trading idea:
- Enter a sell trade when the Repulse line reverses down from the overbought zone
- Place stop loss above recent highs
- Take profit near support or when the line moves toward oversold levels
Using Multiple Repulse Indicators
A common strategy is to apply Repulse(1), Repulse(5), and Repulse(15) on the same chart:
- Repulse(1) – very short-term momentum
- Repulse(5) – short-term trend
- Repulse(15) – medium-term trend
This combination allows traders to observe trends across different timeframes simultaneously, providing a comprehensive view of market sentiment.
Conclusion
The Smoothed Repulse 2 Indicator for MT5 is a versatile oscillator that helps traders:
- Measure market sentiment
- Identify overbought and oversold conditions
- Receive actionable buy and sell signals
By incorporating this indicator into your trading strategy, you gain insight into market confidence, helping you make more informed and timely trading decisions.
