MT4 Multi Timeframe Analysis + Super Trend Forex Strategy for MT4
This strategy combines the Multi Timeframe MTF Trade Analysis MT4 indicator with the Non-Repainting Super Trend MT4 indicator.
The MTF Trade Analysis checks multiple technical indicators across different timeframes to confirm strong trends.
A consistent “UP” trend across all indicators signals a strong bullish bias, while a consistent “DOWN” trend signals a strong bearish bias.
The Super Trend indicator adds precise entry signals using a blue line for buys and a red line for sells.
By combining trend confirmation with clear entry signals, this strategy is designed for intraday and swing traders who want high-probability trades on major currency pairs.
Buy Rules
- The MTF Trade Analysis must show an “UP” trend across all technical indicators for the selected timeframe.
- The Non-Repainting Super Trend line must turn blue.
- Enter a buy trade at the next candle open after both signals align.
- Place the stop loss below the most recent swing low or below the Super Trend line.
- Take profit at the next resistance level or trail the stop if momentum remains strong.
Sell Rules
- The MTF Trade Analysis must show a “DOWN” trend across all technical indicators for the selected timeframe.
- The Non-Repainting Super Trend line must turn red.

- Take profit at the next support level or trail the stop if the trend continues.
Advantages

- Non-repainting Super Trend ensures signals remain valid after candle close.
- Works well on major currency pairs and various timeframes, from M15 to H1.
