Time Frames Buttons and Winner Trend Forex Bars MT4 Scalping Strategy

The MT4 Time Frames Buttons and Winner Trend Forex Bars Scalping Strategy is designed for fast-paced, short-term trading on M1 and M5 charts.

This setup combines a multi-timeframe dashboard with a clear trend bar indicator to help scalpers quickly identify opportunities across multiple currency pairs and timeframes.

By integrating visual trend confirmation with an intuitive dashboard, traders can react immediately to short-term market movements and take advantage of high-probability setups.

The Forex Time Frames Buttons on Chart Indicator displays a clickable dashboard directly on the chart.

It allows traders to switch between multiple timeframes and monitor various currency pairs without leaving the current chart.

The Winner Trend Forex Bars Indicator displays green bars for buy signals and red bars for sell signals, providing immediate visual guidance for trade entries.

This strategy focuses on capturing quick price movements by entering trades in the direction of confirmed trend bars, ideally during active trading sessions such as London and New York.

Scalpers benefit from seeing multiple pairs and timeframes at a glance, increasing the likelihood of spotting short-term opportunities efficiently.

Buy Entry Rules

  • Ensure the Winner Trend bars are green, indicating bullish momentum.
  • Use the Time Frames Buttons dashboard to confirm that the higher timeframe trend (e.g., M5 when trading M1) is also bullish.
  • Enter a buy trade at the next candle open once both lower and higher timeframe trends align.
  • Set a stop loss 5 to 8 pips below the recent swing low.
  • Take profit after capturing 8–15 pips or when the bars turn red on the Winner Trend indicator.

Sell Entry Rules

  • Check that the Winner Trend bars are red, indicating bearish momentum.
  • Confirm on the Time Frames Buttons dashboard that the higher timeframe trend matches the sell direction.
  • Enter a sell trade at the next candle open once trends align.
  • Place a stop loss 5 to 8 pips above the most recent swing high.
  • Take profit after 8–15 pips or when the bars turn green.

Advantages

  • Allows fast monitoring of multiple currency pairs and timeframes for scalping opportunities.
  • Combines trend confirmation across timeframes to increase trade accuracy.
  • Clear color-coded bars make entries and exits easy to follow.

Drawbacks

  • Scalping requires constant attention and quick execution.
  • False signals can occur during low volatility or sideways markets.
  • Limited profit potential per trade, requiring multiple successful trades for significant gains.
