SAR Colored Indicator with Alarm – Enhance Your Trading Strategy
Are you tired of constantly monitoring charts for trend reversals? Introducing the SAR Colored Indicator with Alarm – a powerful, user-friendly tool designed to transform the classic Parabolic SAR (Stop and Reverse) into a dynamic, visually intuitive, and alert-driven system. Perfect for traders of all levels, this indicator is now available in the MQL Market and ready to elevate your trading experience.
What is the SAR Colored Indicator with Alarm?
The SAR Colored Indicator builds upon the foundational Parabolic SAR algorithm, which is widely used to identify potential trend reversals in price movements. Our enhanced version adds color-coded visualization and customizable audio/visual alarms, making it easier than ever to spot high-probability entry and exit points in real time.
Key Features
1. Color-Coded SAR Dots for Instant Trend Recognition
- Green Dots: Indicate an uptrend (buy potential). The SAR dots appear below the price candles.
- Red Dots: Signal a downtrend (sell potential). The SAR dots appear above the price candles.
- Smooth Transitions: Colors switch automatically when the trend reverses, giving you crystal-clear visual cues.
2. Customizable Alarm System
Never miss a critical trend reversal:
- Audio Alerts: Choose from multiple built-in sounds or upload your own .wav file.
- Visual Pop-Ups: A notification window appears on your screen when the SAR flips direction.
3. Fully Adjustable SAR Parameters
Tailor the indicator to fit any trading style:
- Step (Acceleration Factor): Adjust from 0.01 to 0.2 (default is 0.02).
- Maximum Step: Set between 0.1 and 0.5 (default is 0.2).
Ideal for scalping, day trading, or swing trading strategies.
4. Non-Repainting & Lightweight
5. User-Friendly Interface
How It Works – A Quick Example
Imagine you’re watching EUR/USD on the 15-minute chart:
1. The price has been rising, and the SAR dots are green (below candles).
2. Suddenly, the price reverses, and the SAR flips above the candles.
3. Instantly:
o The dots turn red.
o A pop-up alert appears: “SAR Reversal Detected on EUR/USD (M15) – Downtrend Started!”
o Your chosen sound plays.
4. You receive the same alert on your phone via push notification.
This gives you precious seconds to prepare for a potential sell entry or to exit a long position.
