17. The Matrix Arrow Indicator MT4/5© isn’t a crystal ball for market predictions but a trustworthy indicator that monitors current market conditions to generate 100% non-repainting entry and exit signals. These signals are a valuable resource for manual and algorithmic traders alike. Unlike other indicators, the Matrix Arrow Indicator MT4/5© does not repaint or erase any signals, ensuring complete transparency.
When signals on a particular timeframe appear unclear or contradictory, it’s a good idea to switch to another timeframe to find one that aligns better with the market’s current behavior. For example, in this EURUSD H1 chart, the market’s hesitation results in opposing signals, which aren’t particularly helpful:
When you switch to M5, the market often appears calmer, allowing the Matrix Arrow Indicator MT4/5© to generate entry arrows and exit dots that are more profitable and sensible. To achieve the best results, use the Matrix Arrow Indicator MT4/5© to explore various symbols and timeframes, focusing on those that perform well in the current market environment. Avoid trades that don’t seem promising or rational.
The Matrix Arrow Indicator MT4/5©, a reliable non-repainting tool, processes inputs from 10/11 standard indicators to generate signals that depict the current trend. However, rapid price shifts caused by news releases or official statements cannot be forecasted.
For example, on this EURUSD M5 chart, the red arrow within the circle signifies a sell signal based on unanimous data from the indicators suggesting a downward trend. A few candles later, the US NFP news announcement reverses the market direction, driving prices upward unexpectedly. Such changes are unpredictable for any real indicator, as no one can foresee news events.
With repainting indicators, the red arrow might disappear and be replaced with a blue arrow after the price movement. The Matrix Arrow Indicator MT4/5© never engages in repainting, ensuring all its signals remain visible and unaltered, as initially formed.
Another Example
If you’re finding signals from a certain timeframe to be unreliable, try looking at a different one. For instance, the M5 and M15 GBPUSD charts are difficult to interpret because the trend frequently changes every few hours.
M1 and H1 provide relatively straightforward signals, so they’re good timeframes to consider for trading. If you opt for a very short timeframe like M1, your trading style will be focused on scalping for small profits, with a larger stop loss to give your trades room to breathe and protect you from abrupt market movements.
For today’s GBPUSD charts, the 30-minute timeframe delivers the best signals. After carefully reviewing the timeframes above, you'll find that M30 is the most suitable timeframe for trading during this period. The M30 timeframe also gives you more time to make informed trading decisions, with trades lasting from hours to a few days, and your take profit and stop loss levels placed far enough apart to avoid being triggered by small market movements.
