The Linear Regression Channel Cloud Indicator for MetaTrader 5 is a highly customizable tool that automatically draws multiple regression channels on a chart. This is a very responsive indicator with multi-frame shifts; it constantly identifies and draws new channels as a trend develops or changes direction.

What are regression channels?
The regression channel is a technical indicator for analyzing the trend shift of a financial asset; it consists of two equidistant parallel lines and an axial line. A bullish trend is drawn when the indicator is pointing up and a bearish trend is drawn when the indicator is pointing down.

The Linear Regression Channel Cloud indicator for MT5 is suitable for both trend and breakout traders. This makes sense since the upper and lower lines of the indicator act as a potential support/resistance zone. This means that you can open a buy/sell position after the price reacts to the lower/upper line; or wait for the breakout and retest before opening a buy/sell position.

How to Trade With Linear Regression Channel Cloud Indicator

The image above shows the action of the indicator on the GBPUSD currency pair on the M15 timeframe. For example, it shows how to find trading opportunities with the indicator in an uptrend.

The image shows how the price has rejected the wick several times in the lower zone of the indicator, which, in turn, means a potential bullish continuation (buy signal).

The image above shows how to use the indicator to identify trading opportunities when the price breaks out of the channel. It shows how the price of the GBPUSD currency pair broke out of the bullish channel and retested it before turning to the downside (bearish).

The play here is based on the concept that a resistance zone is more likely to act as support after the price breaks it and retests it.

Conclusion
The Linear Regression Channel Cloud Indicator for MT5 is a trading tool that automatically draws regression channels on your chart. Moreover, it is suitable for scalping, day/intraday and swing trading. Finally, it’s free to download.
