Description
Trend Trading is an innovative analyzer designed for trend following trading. The analyzer consists of a trend line, colored bars, arrow pointers and reference information. After completion of the current bar, the trend line, the color of the bar and the arrow pointers are not redrawn.
Change of market sentiment can be calculated based on one of the fourteen basic indicators included in the standard package of MT4, it affects the color of the trend line.
Optionally colored bars, arrow pointers and reference information can be shown on the chart or hidden, and the arrow pointers can be simple and/or synergistic simultaneously.
The analyzer can send an email alerting of the appearance of the arrow pointer on the last two bars: current and previous.
Sample e-mail notification:

Recommendations
In intraday trading on the current timeframe, it is recommended that you wait for the end of correction and trade in the direction of the main trend of a higher timeframe (for example, in the trend direction of the daily chart).
Trading can also be possible when signals occur in both direction.
This is a very good trend indy. I use it as an exit strategy as well when color of bars turns neutral, then wait if continuation is possible to re-enter or wait for trend change.
