Moreover, the Legacy Metatrader 4 indicator displays the most current trend in the upper right corner of the chart.

The trend is either an “uptrend” or an “downtrend.

Legacy Trader draws magenta and aqua dot above or below the price bars.

Magenta dots suggest there’s an short-term uptrend and traders look to buy the currency pair.

Aqua dots suggest there’s an short-term downtrend and traders look to sell the currency pair.

A stop-loss is typically placed 1-3 pips above (for sell) or below (for buy) the Legacy Trader dots.

You can trail your stop-loss up (for buy signal) or down (for sell signal) to lock in profits or to reduce the risk on the open trade.
