Submitted by Edward Revy on June 25, 2009 - 15:48.
This is a well know trend line breakout strategy by Tom DeMark.
The only difficulties traders had earlier were all about constantly drawing trend lines and calculating profit targets.
With a help of custom MT4 indicator this problem was solved.
Two variations of the same indicator:

Yes, Azim
we wait for a bar to close before entering, I do when trading trend line breakout (except for advanced #5).
To user who said that it's not working - currency trading based on support/resistance, including trend lines will never stop working, because this is the essence of trading. But such type of trading may not work for everyone, or may not work from the first time you use it. Either way, I always suggest to move forward and try new things if any system doesn't deliver results for you. So yes, there is a value in your feedback as well.
Kind regards,

this is a perdant strategy. doesn't work anymore both EMA's and divergences . Doesn't work with candlesticks patterns and 123 pattern. This strategy sux . Don't lose time with this
Hi Edward,
Should i wait for the bar to close after the breakout before entering the trade?

These facts suggest you should stop trading live.
Every trader can have ups and downs in trading, but only those who are able to manage funds appropriately survive.
There is a wisdom that you can lose by having little experience, but you can't be rich under the same circumstances.
Give it some more time on demo before you consider taking a new risk. It often takes years to master Forex trading, so don't quit.

Thank you Steve,
Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with MQL to add features to MT4 indicators.

Hi Edward ...Great job on the forum and thanks for the DM indicators ...I prefer the IND-TD-DeMark-3-1_eng.mq4 as it gives projected profit targets, but the other indicator has Alerts...
...any idea how I can add Alerts to the IND-TD-DeMark-3-1_eng.mq4 one?
Kind regards, Steve.
This Demark Trendline is now my Favorite System. I trade it on the Daily Charts and it has worked great. You just need huge stops. Thanks for sharing!
This method is known as Donchian channel method.
I've attached the manual and MT4 indicator for you.

Hi Claude,
we didn't talk about it before.
Here is what guys at Visual trading think about formulas for buying and selling pressure:
bp = buying pressure
tl = true low
bc = bar close
bl = bar low
pc = previous bar close
if (bl < pc) then (tl = bl) else (tl = pc)
bp = bc - tl
------------------------------
sp = selling pressure
th = true high
bc = bar close
bh = bar high
pc = previous bar close
if (bh > pc) then (th = bh) else (th = pc)
sp = bc - th

Hello Edward,
Calculating the buying pressure is easy enough. Low-close+close. What about "selling pressure" for a downside breakout? maybe it has been mentioned somewhere but I don
