How to Determine Entry and Exit Points with Murrey Math MT4 Indicator
The Murrey Math MT4 indicator displays mathematical derived support and resistance levels that can be very predictive and they are a wonderful place to start when you’re new to trading and still learning how to properly draw your support and resistance levels. The Murrey Math indicator was developed by T. Henning Murrey in 1998 and it’s derived from the Gann studies.
The Murrey Math MT4 Indicator is a pivot line indicator good for use for all price action traders because it can accurately analyze different price action zones on the charts. This indicator can be used independently or with other indicator that are based on technical analysis, such as the Fibonacci levels, which are a great tool to be used in confluence with the Murrey Math lines.
How to Determine Entry and Exit Points with Murrey Math MT4 Indicator
The Murrey Math MT4 indicator consists of 8 lines and each line is represented by different price action that is expected to take place. Effectively what the Murrey Math technique does is divide price into 8 important levels with the 8/8, 4/8 and the 0/8 levels being the most important.
[0/8]P – Hardest line to fall below, oversold conditions
[-1/8]P – Oversold conditions
[-2/8]P – Extreme oversold conditions, can reverse anytime
The first input parameters of the Murrey Math MT4 indicator is the variable P (Periods) which has assigned a default value of 64 and represents the numbers of bars the indicator will take into consideration for calculating the Murrey’s lines. The MMPeriodhas assigned a default value of 1440 which is a day worth of data (a day has 1440 minutes). Last but not least the SetBack variable has assigned a value of 0 which means that the Murrey’s lines will not be shifted back in time.
Murrey Math MT4 Indicator Strategy and Trading Rules
Buy Signal: If the market breaks from below the [4/8]P (blue line) pivotal point, buy the breakout using a protective stop loss order 10 pips below the [2/8]P (red line). Take profit once the [6/8]P (red line) is hit.
Sell Signal: If the market breaks from above the [4/8]P (blue line) pivotal point, sell the breakout using a protective stop loss order 10 pips above the [2/8]P (red line). Take profit once the [6/8]P (red line) is hit.
It’s important to mention that we only buy/sell the breakout of the [4/8]P pivotal point if the market has spent enough time below/above it, at least two days in order for the trading signal to be valid. If the price breaks the [4/8]P pivotal point multiple times back and forth wait until the market establishes on one side of the Murrey’s line before trading the breakout.
