How to use the Trend Force Indicator for MT4?

The Trend Force is based on the Average True Range indicator. You can look for a long entry when the histogram moves above the zero line. Conversely, find a short entry when the histogram moves below the zero line.

However, you should not blindly take positions on the zero line only. Make sure, the candlestick must close as a bullish one if you are looking for a long entry. You can exit the position in profit when the indicator bars start declining, and the color is yellow.

Similarly, you must wait for a bearish candle to close after the indicator turns red below the zero line. The change in color from red to chocolate shows the loss of bearish strength, and you can exit.
