The MPC Channel Breakout Metatrader 5 custom forex trading indicator is based on the channel breakout.
The inherent rule still applies here, where a long entry is initiated when the price displays new N days maximum, a short entry is initiated when the price displays new N days minimum.
The MPC MT5 forex indicator allows us to predict the trend direction of any currency pair.
The lag that is witnessed with most channel indicators is eliminated with this trading indicator.
The MPC does this by simply plotting a channel using extremums of the specified period.
The Middle MPC, Upper MPC and Lower MPC are represented by red, magenta and aqua filled lines respectively.
