Trend Hunter and Demand and Supply MT5 Forex Strategy

This strategy combines the Trend Hunter Forex Indicator for MT5 with the Demand and Supply Forex Block Indicator for MT5 to capture high‑probability trades that align trend signals with key demand and supply zones.

The Trend Hunter indicator identifies potential trend reversals with clear arrows on the chart, while the Demand and Supply indicator highlights areas where price is likely to reverse or continue.

This combination works well on 30‑minute, 1‑hour, and 4‑hour time frames.

It is suitable for swing traders and intraday traders who want rules that help filter noise and focus on trades where trend and price structure align.

Buy Entry Rules

  • Wait for the price to return to a major demand zone marked by the Demand and Supply indicator. These are red blocks where buying pressure historically appears.
  • At the same time, wait for a blue Trend Hunter arrow to appear on the chart. This signals a potential bullish continuation or reversal in the direction of the trend.
  • Open the buy trade only after both conditions are met: price touching or entering a demand zone and a blue Trend Hunter arrow confirming upward bias.
  • Place the stop loss below the demand zone or a recent swing low to allow room for normal price movement while limiting risk.
  • Set your initial take profit target at the next key resistance level, recent swing high, or a favorable risk‑reward ratio such as 1:2 or better.
  • If price strongly breaks above the next resistance and trend persists, consider moving your stop to break even and holding for extended targets.

Sell Entry Rules

  • Wait for price to return to a major supply zone highlighted by the Demand and Supply indicator. These are green blocks where selling pressure historically appears.
  • Wait for a magenta Trend Hunter arrow to appear around the supply zone. The arrow suggests a potential bearish continuation or reversal aligned with the trend.
  • Open the sell trade when both the supply zone touch and the magenta arrow are confirmed.
  • Place the stop loss above the supply zone or above a recent swing high. This helps reduce false breakouts while keeping risk controlled.
  • Set your initial take profit at the next support level, recent swing low, or a risk‑reward ratio that suits your trading plan, such as 1:2 or greater.
  • If price continues strongly in your direction and breaks below support, adjust your stop to a safer level to lock in profits while targeting deeper levels.

Case Study 1

On the EUR/USD 1‑hour chart, the market was clearly in a bullish trend with higher highs and higher lows.

Price retraced back to a major red demand zone highlighted by the Demand and Supply indicator.

As price approached this zone, a blue Trend Hunter arrow appeared, confirming a bullish bias at a structurally important level.

A buy order was placed with the stop loss just below the demand zone.

The trade moved upward, hitting the next resistance area for a solid profit.

The flow of this setup showed alignment between trend direction, buyer interest at demand, and trend confirmation from Trend Hunter.

Case Study 2
