Supertrend MTF indicator is a great tool to add to your MetaTrader4 platform. The original Supertrend is a popular indicator that allows you to spot the overall trend of a Forex Pair or any other asset. Supertrend Multi-Timeframe (MTF) indicator improves Supertrend Line indicator by taking into consideration the trend in multiple timeframes.
Original Supertrend Line Indicator
This well-known tool uses a combination of a moving average and average true range to detect the trend. It then shows it as a line following the price. Basically, the indicator takes into account the volatility of the price and draws a line on the chart showing if the price is likely to be in an uptrend or downtrend.
The Supertrend Line Indicator is probably one of the most popular custom indicators for MetaTrader 4. The indicator is ideal for trend following strategies to spot a continuing trend. Also, you can use it to buy when the price switches from downtrend to uptrend and sell in the opposite case.
Supertrend is a very simple indicator to use. However, it is badly affected by a ranging market and can provide false signals. Here comes the Supertrend Multi-Timeframe (MTF) indicator.

Supertrend MTF Indicator tries to minimize the false signals when the market is ranging. It is a combination of Supertrend indicators in different timeframes. Thanks to this combination, you can see Supertrend status across all the selected timeframes in a single place.
Why using Supertrend MTF Indicator
Checking the trend on only one chart can lead to a limited understanding of the overall trend.
For example, if you check Supertrend values of the EUR/USD currency pair on an M30 chart, it might signal an uptrend.
However, once you check Supertrend of the same pair on an H4 chart, you could see a major downtrend.
Watching Supertrend for several timeframes can provide a strategic overview. It can give you a better idea of the overall trend.
Supertrend Multi-Timeframe (MTF) can help you make better decisions while trading because trending conditions for each timeframe are clearly visualized in an easy-to-read table.
I included an informational MTF indicator to one of my own trading systems. Titanium Scalper has a very convenient MTF scanner that displays an overall trend on 12 currency pairs at once!

Hello Vipin,
I already shared it in my own blog. I am now trading with Forex Xcelerator provided by Oliver Murphy as well. I make rather stable profits with its help. I added my own filter to it to increase the accuracy but is is definitely good as it is.
I got it after reading a review here: https://altraforex.com/post/forex_xcelerator_review/
Hope you will find it useful too.
