About the Indicator

The Support Price Alert indicator that runs on Metatrader 4  notifies you when the price reaches your predetermined support price alert level.

After loading the indicator on the chart, it appears in the form of a horizontal magenta colored line.

The default magenta color can be changed to whatever color you want.

You can move the magenta colored support alert line up and down on the chart with your mouse button.

The indicator alerts you when the price touches the magenta colored support horizontal line.

How To Trade Using This Indicator

Here’s how you can apply this indicator in your trading:

📉 Entry Point

Place the magenta support alert line just below a key support level on your chart. When price breaks and closes below this line and the alert triggers, it can signal a short (sell) opportunity. Confirm with volume or candle patterns for added confidence.

🛑 Stop Loss

For sell entries, place your stop loss just above the broken support level or recent swing high. This protects you from false breakouts and price pullbacks.

🎯 Take Profit

Target the next support level below or use a fixed risk-reward ratio such as 1:2 or 1:3. You can also trail your stop loss as price moves in your favor.

Support Price Alert Line + 1-2-3 Forex Pattern v6 with Arrows Strategy for MT4

This strategy combines the real-time support monitoring of the Support Price Alert Line Forex Indicator with the pattern-based entry confirmation of the 1-2-3 Forex Pattern Indicator v6 with Arrows.

By aligning price behavior around strong support levels with reliable 1-2-3 reversal patterns, traders can catch low-risk buy opportunities and occasional trend reversals.

This setup works well on M15 to H1 charts across major forex pairs.

What Is This Strategy About?

The Support Price Alert Line Indicator lets traders set alert zones at critical support levels where the price is expected to bounce.

The 1-2-3 Forex Pattern v6 Indicator automatically detects the classic 1-2-3 reversal formation and shows entry arrows when the pattern completes.

By combining support zones with bullish 1-2-3 patterns, traders can time low-risk buy entries and benefit from early-stage trend reversals or corrections.

Buy Rules

Conditions:

  • Price touches or bounces near a support line drawn by the Support Price Alert Line Indicator.
  • The 1-2-3 Pattern Indicator detects a bullish 1-2-3 pattern and displays a buy arrow.

Entry:

Enter a buy trade when the pattern arrow appears at or near a support level and confirms the price has reversed from the zone.

Stop Loss:

Place a stop loss below the support level or below the low of the ‘point 3’ of the 1-2-3 pattern.

Take Profit:

Use a risk-reward ratio of 1:2 or target the next visible resistance zone.

Sell Rules

Conditions:

  • This setup is primarily support-based and favors buy trades. However, you may consider selling trades if:
  • Price fails to hold the support zone (breaks below the alert line).
  • The 1-2-3 Indicator shows a bearish pattern and a down arrow after the break.

Entry:

Open a sell trade after a confirmed breakdown below support and bearish 1-2-3 signal confirmation.

Stop Loss:

Set stop loss above the broken support level or above point 3 of the bearish 1-2-3 pattern.

Take Profit:

Target the next major support area or use a fixed R:R ratio like 1:2 or 1:3.

Advantages

  • Combines price structure (support zones) with a reliable chart pattern (1-2-3) for precision entries.
  • Reduces risk by focusing on confirmed bounces or breakdowns near known price levels.
  • Automatically drawn arrows simplify trade execution decisions.
  • Effective across different currency pairs and intraday timeframes.

Drawbacks

  • Support zones need to be well-placed to be effective.
  • 1-2-3 patterns may repaint if not confirmed by additional price action.
  • Requires some manual confirmation and market observation.

Strategy Conclusion

The Support Price Alert Line + 1-2-3 Forex Pattern v6 Strategy offers traders a smart, pattern-based approach to buying at strong support levels.

The Support Price Alert Line Indicator provides the foundation by marking high-probability bounce zones, while the 1-2-3 Pattern v6 Indicator confirms reversal structure with visual arrows.

This pairing helps traders avoid false entries and enhances trade confidence around critical price areas.
