Fiji Trend Indicator MT4
Platform: MT4 Type: Trend Last update: August 22, 2026The Fiji Trend Indicator for MT4 simplifies trend-following into a single line and a set of arrows, so you can read market direction at a glance without juggling multiple tools or filters.
It works great both in trend and reversal trading strategies.
Example chart:
As you can see on the EUR/USD H1 chart, the Fiji Indicator runs in a separate window below the price chart.
It shows a main signal line, a continuous arrow line in yellow and aqua that marks the ongoing trend. There are also green and red arrows that flag buy and sell entry and exit points.
Under the hood, it uses an 11-period Average True Range (ATR) alongside a 5-period Moving Average (MA) to generate its signals.
It tends to perform best during strong, large market swings.
How to use the Fiji Trend Indicator for MT4?
A long signal on the Fiji Trend indicator triggers when a green upward arrow appears and the signal candle closes, followed by the signal line turning aqua. Exit the trade once an opposite arrow appears.
A short signal works the same way in reverse: a downward arrow appears, the signal line turns yellow and you exit on the next opposite arrow.
Trading with a 200 EMA Filter
To improve accuracy, you can add a 200-period Exponential Moving Average and only trade in the direction of the dominant trend.
Long positions
For a long trade, first confirm the trend is bullish: the EMA should slope upward, price should sit higher on the right side of the chart than the left. candles should stay above the EMA line. Once confirmed, wait for a green arrow before entering, and place your stop loss slightly below the EMA.

Short positions
For a short trade, look for the opposite conditions: a downward-sloping EMA and price trending lower. Candles staying below the EMA line. Wait for a red arrow before entering and place your stop loss slightly above the EMA.
For either direction, a 1:2 risk-to-reward ratio works well for taking profit. You can trail your stop loss and extend your target to 1:3.

Bottom line
The Fiji Trend is a solid MetaTrader 4 indicator for tracking short-term trend and it’s especially beginner-friendly since all you need to do is match the signal line’s color to the market direction.
It works well on its own or alongside other tools, though trading it without a filter like the EMA leaves you more exposed to occasional false signals.
