The Trend Traffic Indicator for MetaTrader is a custom MT4 indicator designed to help traders determine which side—bulls or bears—is currently dominating the market. By identifying the prevailing market bias, the indicator enables traders to align trades with the trend, increasing the probability of successful entries.
Suitable for novice, intermediate, and experienced traders, this tool works well for day trading, intraday, and Scalping strategies.
How the Trend Traffic Indicator Works
The indicator uses a 0.00 level, two exponential moving averages (EMAs), and a color-coded histogram to illustrate market trends.
Histogram Signals
- Green Bar: Indicates bullish or bearish dominance depending on the market direction
- Yellow Bar: Signals a weak trend or market indecision
- Red Bar: Suggests a potential Trend Reversal (e.g., bullish to bearish)
BUY Signal

- Confirm that the histogram paints green bars (indicating bullish dominance)
- Open a BUY/LONG position in line with Price Action, e.g., a bullish engulfing candle
SELL Signal
