Use the Magic Wave Indicator to determine potential buy/sell signals in MT4.
Magic Wave Indicator uses a price wave pattern to determine its trend direction. The indicator automatically detects a trend reversal and continuation pattern when the price crosses the low or high of multiple inside bars. The magic wave pattern usually forms in a market consolidation phase, particularly if the price candles close within a bullish or bearish area. When the price leaves the consolidation area, the indicator will issue a sell/buy alert and arrow signals.
You can utilize the magic wave signals during a bullish or bearish market to identify trend-following opportunities. We’ll take a buy signal if the indicator displays a green line during a bullish market. A red arrow that is above the inside bar’s highest in a downtrend markets indicates a sell signal.
This example shows how you can take advantage of a bullish breakout to get long. The price recovered from its bottom after the bearish rally ended. It then initiated a bullish movement and plotted several bullish candles, establishing an uptrend. The indicator issued a buy signal when the price reached the top of the inside bar.

Wait for the bullish/bearish trend signal to confirm an order before placing any orders. You may also add an MT4 indicator to the Magic Wave for greater results.
