The Real Cloud Indicator for MT4 is a moving average–based trading tool that generates clear bullish and bearish trend signals. It combines the 9-period and 76-period moving averages to create cloud formations that help traders identify entry and exit points.
Because it provides both buy and sell signals, traders can use it as a standalone trading system. Additionally, the moving average settings can be customized, allowing traders to develop multi-timeframe (MTF) strategies by combining higher and current timeframe averages.
This indicator works effectively across all timeframes, from intraday charts to daily, weekly, and monthly price charts.
How the Real Cloud Indicator Works
The indicator plots colored clouds directly on the chart:
- Aqua Cloud → Bullish trend
- Magenta Cloud → Bearish trend
The cloud forms based on the crossover and relationship between the two moving averages.
Trading Strategy
Buy Setup
- Wait for the Aqua cloud to appear, indicating bullish conditions.
- Enter a Buy trade at candle close.
- Place a stop loss below the previous swing low.
- Ride the trend and exit when the cloud changes to magenta.
- Optionally, trail stop loss along the base of the cloud.
Sell Setup
- Wait for the Magenta cloud to appear, indicating bearish conditions.
- Enter a Sell trade at candle close.
- Place a stop loss above the previous swing high.
- Exit when the cloud changes to aqua.
- Trail stop loss along the upper boundary of the cloud if desired.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Strategy Option
One of the powerful features of this indicator is customization:
- Use a higher timeframe moving average combined with a current timeframe average.
- This helps align trades with the broader trend direction.
