Trying to figure out where the market’s really heading can be frustrating, right? Candles look bullish one moment, bearish the next… and before you know it, you’re stuck in a whipsaw. The FX Vector Indicator for MT4 is designed to cut through that noise.


Instead of cluttering your charts with a dozen oscillators, this indicator focuses on vector-based directional strength. In plain English: it measures the “force” of market moves and points out whether the next push is likely to continue or fade.


If you’ve been looking for a clean, no-nonsense way to track momentum and filter entries, FX Vector Indicator V1.0 could easily become your go-to confirmation tool.

How Traders Use It



  1. Trend Confirmation
    Only take longs if the FX Vector is green, shorts if red. Simple, effective.

  2. Entry Filter
    Combine with breakout strategies; trade only when breakout aligns with vector direction.

  3. Exit Timing
    If vectors start fading, it’s often a clue to tighten stops or scale out.

  4. Multi-Timeframe Analysis
    Use H1 for trend direction, M15 for entries. FX Vector helps synchronize signals.
