Successful Operation Indicator - The Precision Cross Tracker
"Catch the trend at its birth, and ride it with confidence!"
Indicator Overview
The Successful Operation Indicator is a clean and effective MetaTrader 4 (MT4) tool designed to identify early trend reversals using a fast and slow moving average crossover system. It plots up (green) and down (red) arrows at the exact points where the faster EMA crosses the slower EMA, helping traders spot potential entry signals with high accuracy.
How It Works
The indicator uses:
Two Linear Weighted Moving Averages (LWMA) – A fast EMA (default: 5) and a slow EMA (default: 6).
Crossover Detection – Marks bullish signals when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA and bearish signals when it crosses below.
Dynamic Arrow Placement – Arrows appear slightly outside price extremes (High/Low ± Average Range) for better visibility.
Key Logic:
When the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, a green arrow (↑) appears below the price, signaling a buy opportunity.
When the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA, a red arrow (↓) appears above the price, signaling a sell opportunity.
The arrows are placed at Low[i] - (AvgRange/2) for buys and High[i] + (AvgRange/2) for sells to avoid clutter.

How to Use the Indicator

Buy Signal (↑) → Fast EMA crosses above Slow EMA (green arrow).
Sell Signal (↓) → Fast EMA crosses below Slow EMA (red arrow).
2. Confirmation & Filtering
Combine with Price Action – Look for support/resistance or candlestick patterns near arrows.
Use Higher Timeframes – Works best on H1, H4, D1 for fewer false signals.
Avoid Choppy Markets – Works best in trending conditions.
3. Exit Strategy
Trail stops using the opposite EMA cross.
Take partial profits at key levels.
Trading Strategy Ideas
Swing Trading – Hold trades for several bars after a confirmed crossover.
Scalping (M5-M15) – Use tight stops and quick exits in volatile markets.
Trend-Following – Stay in trades as long as the fast EMA remains above/below the slow EMA.
