Breakout Box Indicator (Free Download)
The Breakout Box Indicator is highly effective for strategies focused on price breakouts, and it’s best used on timeframes shorter than 4 hours, such as M1, M5, M15, M30, and H1. However, the H1 timeframe tends to provide the most reliable signals.
The Breakout Box Indicator is a useful tool for MetaTrader 4 (MT4) trading platform that helps traders spot important price levels in the market. It draws boxes on your chart to show areas where the price might break out and start a new trend. This indicator is great for traders who want to catch big price moves early.
How it works
The Breakout Box Indicator aims at recent price movements and draws rectangular boxes on your chart. These boxes show important support and resistance levels.
Basically, it draws a box around the high and low prices over a specified time period. When the price moves beyond the boundaries of the box, it signals for a possible breakout. For instance:
- If the price breaks above the upper boundary of the box, this suggests a bullish breakout.
- If the price breaks below the lower boundary, this indicates a bearish breakout.
You can use these signals to enter trades in the direction of the breakout. A more advanced approach involves waiting for a retest of the breakout zone, confirming that the breakout is correct before entering a trade.
