Introduction
This MT4 strategy combines the Dynamic Gains Forex Indicator with the XTC Forex Trend Indicator.
The Dynamic Gains indicator identifies trend-following opportunities with clear buy and sell signals, while the XTC Trend Indicator confirms the market direction and trend strength.
Together, they create a reliable system for capturing strong price moves.
This strategy works best on 15-minute, 30-minute, and 1-hour charts for intraday trading, but can also be used on 4-hour charts for swing trades.
It is suitable for traders who prefer visual signals and want a system that minimizes false entries in trending markets.

- The XTC Trend Indicator must show a bullish blue trend arrow.
- The Dynamic Gains Forex Indicator must display blue histogram bars.
- Enter a long position at the close of the candle, confirming both indicators.
