This scalping strategy combines the Consecutive Candlesticks with Stochastic MT4 Indicator and the 4 Time Frame Hull Trend Indicator for MT4 to help you find quick and high-probability trades on the M1 and M5 charts.
The first indicator displays colored dots showing short‑term momentum signals: trade green dots when the trend is up and red dots when the trend is down.

This system is designed for fast markets and quick decision making.
By combining short‑term entry dots with multi‑time frame trend confirmation, you reduce noise and avoid entering counter‑trend moves.
