You download the zip file, you unzip it, you copy the indicator file (in the unziped folder) and you paste it in the MT4/5 >> File >> Open Data Folder >> MQL4/5 >> Indicators, folder.

Then you right click the Indicators option in the Navigator window and click >> Refresh.

Now you can choose from the Indicators menu above >> Custom and choose the one you've just installed.

What keeps saying "unable to open?"
  1. You do have a program to open Zips, don't you? 7-Zip is free software with open source.
  2. Otherwise open the Data Folder and put the files in the appropriate place like Eleni said.

You first unzip the folder and then you copy > paste the files from the final destination folder into your MQL4 Indicators folder.

Don't try to open files straight out of the zip folder, it doesn't work.
