On the other hand, if one chooses a too short period, the price will often break the upper and lower lines and, as a result, the lines will be constantly redrawn, thus causing a lot of <a href=\"https:\/\/roboforex.com\/blog\/education\/false-signals-in-forex-how-to-detect-and-avoid-them\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"147\" title=\"False Signals\">false signals<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It is recommended to choose an indicator period for each instrument individually. For example, parameters for <a href=\"https:\/\/roboforex.com\/beginners\/info\/charts\/forex\/eurusd\/\" target=\"_blank\">EUR\/USD<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/roboforex.com\/beginners\/info\/charts\/forex\/gbpjpy\/\" target=\"_blank\">GBP\/JPY<\/a> (which is more volatile) will be completely different.

The steps are the same for any version of the indicator:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"mm-steps\">\n  <li><strong>Copy the file.<\/strong> In MT4, open File -&gt; Open Data Folder, go to MQL4 -&gt; Indicators and copy the indicator file (.mq4 or .ex4) there.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Refresh the list.<\/strong> Restart the terminal, or right-click Indicators in the Navigator window and choose Refresh. The Murrey math indicator appears among the custom indicators.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Add it to the chart.<\/strong> Drag it from the Navigator onto the chart, or open Insert -&gt; Indicators -&gt; Custom. In the Inputs tab, set P and StepBack.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Match P to the timeframe.<\/strong> Start with the author's P = 64 on H1 or P = 256 on D1, as described above, and keep StepBack at its default value until you have tested the indicator on history.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Versions of the Murrey math indicator differ in colours, labels and the number of extra levels they draw, but they all build the same [0\/8] to [8\/8] grid. If two versions draw different levels on the same chart with the same P, check which period and which highs and lows each one uses. Before trading the levels, compare them with the price history: the lines should mark places where the price has actually turned or paused.<\/p>\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Trade_Murrey_Math_Lines\"><\/span>How to Trade Murrey Math Lines?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Let&rsquo;s consider each Murrey line on the chart and try to understand what to do when the price rebounds from or breaks a particular line.<\/p>\n<p>Trading Murrey math lines comes down to two scenarios at every level. Either the price bounces, and the trade goes back towards the previous level, or it breaks through, and the trade goes on towards the next one. The levels themselves tell you which scenario is more likely: the outer lines [0\/8] and [8\/8] stop most moves, [4\/8] decides the bias, and [3\/8] and [5\/8] mark the borders of the range in which the price spends much of its time. The nearest level in the direction of the trade serves as the target, and the level behind the entry, or the one after it, as the place for the <a href=\"https:\/\/roboforex.com\/blog\/education\/what-is-stop-loss-and-take-profit\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"228\" title=\"Stop Loss\">stop loss<\/a>.

After that, the previous trend resumes.<\/p>\n<h3>Murrey Math Lines: [-2\/8] and [+2\/8] Levels<\/h3>\n<p>A breakout of [-2\/8] and [+2\/8] indicates a very strong trend on the market. [-2\/8] is ultimate support during a bearish trend, while [+2\/8] indicates ultimate resistance during an uptrend. At such moments, Murrey math lines are redrawn. However, the author expected a closing candlestick 4+ bars higher or lower than these lines, and only after that started re-drawing the lines on a chart.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roboforex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/pic-10-murrey-usdcad.png\"><img alt=\"USD\/CAD chart with a breakout beyond the Murrey plus 2\/8 level and the lines redrawn\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"458\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/roboforex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/pic-10-murrey-usdcad.png\" width=\"929\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Murrey math lines: the [-2\/8] and [+2\/8] levels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Closing_Thoughts\"><\/span>Closing Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Trading using Murrey math lines provides traders with simple rules for entering the market. We understand that a breakout of a line will only push the price towards the next target levels on a chart, while the unwillingness of the instrument to break a line will result in a correction with specific targets. As a result, we have a strategy that implies trading in the direction of an active trend and when we need to look for a reversal, then there are particular levels, from which the price is highly likely to rebound.<\/p>\n<p>However, an ordinary investor may require much time to remember all lines and watch the price behavior at the moment of breakouts or rebounds in <a href=\"https:\/\/roboforex.com\/blog\/education\/main-order-types-in-trading\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"311\" title=\"Order\">order<\/a> to grasp this method. Also, there are no clear parameters for different instruments, so one will have to choose parameters manually based on the experience gained while using the indicator.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, a trading method with the use of Murrey math lines is very interesting and unique and may be combined with your existing know-how, thus significantly improving a classic approach to using Murrey lines.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"mm-cta\">\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/my.roboforex.com\/en\/register\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Open a Trading Account with RoboForex<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ\"><\/span>FAQ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n  <div class=\"mm-faq\">\n    <details class=\"mm-faq-item\">\n      <summary class=\"mm-faq-q\">What are Murrey math lines?<\/summary>\n      <div class=\"mm-faq-a\">An indicator by T.
