How to use the MACD Flat Trend Indicator for MT5?
Once activated, the indicator plots green, red, or gray bricks by comparing the MACD line, signal line, and zero level.
Green shows up when the signal line falls below MACD and MACD holds above zero, marking an uptrend. Red appears when the signal line rises above MACD while MACD sits below zero, marking a downtrend.
If neither condition is met, the indicator shows a gray brick, meaning the market lacks a clear trend and is likely moving sideways.
