Future MACD Indicator for MT4 Download – Free – [TradingFinder]

The Future MACD indicator is an upgraded version of the classic MACD. This trading tool predicts potential price movements by shifting signals "forward" into the future.

This MT4 oscillator uses the MACD signal line and histograms to display market turning points and trade entry opportunities, and it can be used across all markets, forex, stock indices, cryptocurrencies, and commodities.

The table below presents the specifications and features of the Future MACD indicator:

At a Glance the Future MACD Indicator

The fluctuations of the signal line and the formation of the histogram bars relative to the zero line (the oscillator's midline) indicate whether a trend is bullish or bearish.

Thus, if the signal line turns upward and the MACD bars form above the zero line, it signals a bullish trend. Conversely, if the opposite occurs, it indicates a bearish trend.

Buy Setup

Based on the ETH (Ethereum) chart on the 1-hour timeframe, when both the signalline and MACD histogram bars are positioned above the zero line, this indicates a bullish trend.

This oscillator provides a glimpse into future market movements thanks to its forward shift capability.

Sell Setup

According to the USD/CAD chart on the 30-minute timeframe, after the signal line changes direction, the histograms are formed in the negative zone (below the zero line).

In such a scenario, the trend is considered bearish as long as the signal line and MACD bars remain below zero.
