Super Arrow Indicator for MetaTrader4 Download - Free - [TF Lab]

On June 22, 2025, in version 2, alert/notification functionality was added to this indicator

The Super Arrow indicator is a popular indicator in the MetaTrader 4 indicator series that utilizes a combination of indicators, including the RSI (Relative Strength Index), Bollinger Bands, Moving Averages, and a Magic Filter, to effectively identify optimal reversal points and pivot highs and lows in trading charts.

 This indicator marks pivot lows with green arrows and pivot highs with red arrows. By integrating multiple indicators, the Super Arrow provides a robust filter that helps accurately discern the lows and highs in price charts. It is an invaluable tool for traders looking to pinpoint entry and exit points based on pivot signals.

Indicator Table

The image shown depicts the S&P 500 index chart with the symbol [US500] over a one-hour period. Points A, B, and C are identified as pivot lows, where the indicator has issued buy signals marked by green arrows.

Conversely, points D, E, and F represent pivot highs, where the indicator has issued sell signals marked by red arrows.

This setup demonstrates how the indicator effectively uses color-coded arrows to signal optimal trading opportunities at pivotal points in the price chart, guiding traders on potential entries for buying and selling.

Overview

Using signals from a single indicator can be risky for trading, mainly when different indicators give conflicting signals simultaneously. Therefore, combining three or more indicators can help filter out high-risk signals and identify more reliable entry points for trade.

This method enhances decision-making by providing a more comprehensive view of market conditions. In such a multi-indicator system, when the market is bullish and a strong buy signal is present, the MT4 signal and forecast indicators will display a green arrow to indicate a buying opportunity.

Conversely, when the market is bearish and a strong sell signal is present, a red arrow indicates a potential selling opportunity.

Buy Signals (Uptrends)

The image below shows the daily price chart of Bitcoin with the symbol (BITCOIN), where the indicator has identified major pivot levels at the bottom numbers 1 and 2 and issues a buy signal by displaying a green arrow. With the display of the buy signal, one can look for confirmations, such as candlestick patterns and reversal patterns, to enter a trade.

Sell Signals (Downtrends)

The image below shows the 4-hour price chart for gold with the symbol (XAUUSD), where the indicator has identified potential reversal points at major pivot highs 1, 2, 3, and 4, issuing a sell signal with a red arrow. Using classic support and resistance levels can be helpful in confirming the signals from this indicator.
