Best Free Forex Scalper + Magic Trend MT4 Strategy

This scalping strategy uses the Best Free Forex Scalper Indicator for MT4 combined with the Magic Trend Forex Indicator for MT4.

The first indicator gives you a blue arrow for a buy scalper signal and a red arrow for a sell scalper signal.

The second indicator shows a green line when the trend is bullish and a red line when the trend is bearish.

This gives you a simple yet effective rule‑set: trade in the direction of the trend, and enter when the scalper arrow appears.

Timeframes: ideal for M1, M5, and M15 charts on major currency pairs.

Buy Entry Rules

  • Ensure the Magic Trend line is green (bullish trend).
  • Wait for a blue arrow from the Best Free Forex Scalper indicator to appear.
  • Enter a buy trade at the close of the candle that shows the blue arrow.
  • Set a stop‑loss a few pips below the recent swing low (for example, 5‑10 pips on M5).
  • Set a take‑profit at around 1× to 1.5× the stop‑loss distance, or exit when the Magic Trend line turns red or a red arrow appears.

Sell Entry Rules

  • Ensure the Magic Trend line is red (bearish trend).
  • Wait for a red arrow from the Best Free Forex Scalper indicator to appear.
  • Enter a sell trade at the close of the candle that shows the red arrow.
  • Set a stop‑loss a few pips above the recent swing high (for example, 5‑10 pips on M5).
  • Set take‑profit at approximately 1× to 1.5× the stop‑loss size, or exit when the Magic Trend line turns green or a blue arrow appears.

Advantages

  • Simple visual signals (arrows + trend line) make the strategy easy to follow.
  • Works well for fast intraday scalping on lower timeframes (M1, M5, M15).
  • Combines trend‑direction (Magic Trend) with entry timing (scalper arrow) for better filtering of bad trades.

Drawbacks

  • The Magic Trend line may lag slightly when the trend is just beginning or reversing, which can lead to late entries and reduced profit.
  • Scalping style increases transaction cost risk (spreads/commissions) and demands high concentration.

Case Study 1 – EUR/USD (M5 Chart)

During the London session on EUR/USD, the Magic Trend line turned green, indicating a bullish trend.

Shortly afterwards, the Best Free Forex Scalper indicator produced a blue arrow at 1.0980.

A buy trade was entered at 1.0982 with a stop‑loss at 1.0975 (7 pips).

The price moved to 1.0995 within 20 minutes, yielding +13 pips (~1.9× risk).

The strategy captured a clean move aligned with the trend and timely arrow.

Case Study 2 – USD/CAD (M15 Chart)

On the USD/CAD M15 chart during the New York session, the Magic Trend line was red (bearish bias).

The scalper indicator generated a red arrow at 1.3520.

A sell trade was entered at 1.3518 with a stop‑loss at 1.3530 (12 pips).

The price dropped to 1.3495 within an hour, providing ~23 pips profit (~1.9× risk).

The trade worked because trend and entry aligned, and the timeframe gave enough move for a reward.

Strategy Tips

  • Prefer major pairs with good liquidity and low spread (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, etc) for faster reaction and lower cost.
  • On M1 and M5 charts, reduce position size or risk per trade, as these timeframes are more volatile and prone to noise. Perhaps use 0.5× normal size on M1.
  • Keep a trade journal to track how often the arrows give correct signals and adjust stop‑loss/take‑profit sizing based on the pair’s volatility.
