Customizable MT4 pin bars indicator

Pin Bars can print at any time and it can be easy to miss a signal when you are at work or even if you have to step away from your computer for a few minutes.

If you miss a setup, that could have been the trade that made your week.

So let's take a look at how this flexible indicator can help you virtually eliminate missed Pin Bar setups…

Summary of How the MT4 Pin Bar Alerts Indicator Works

The great thing about Pin Bars is that, unlike more complex chart patterns, they are easy to define and you can setup an alert to tell you when they appear.

This custom Pin Bar alert indicator for Metatrader 4 will notify you whenever a Pin Bar that meets your criteria prints on your MT4 charts. You can be notified via popup, email, text and/or MT4 mobile app push notification.

Choose one or more of the notification methods that work best for you.

You can also mark the Pin Bars on your charts, or you can hide them and only utilize the alerts feature. Hiding the markers keeps your charts squeaky clean and makes it much easier to analyze price action.

Do all Pin Bars signal potential trading opportunities?
No. This indicator is meant to assist with trading strategies that use Pin Bars as potential entry signals. Pin Bars alone are NOT entry signals. You need to have a proven Pin Bar trading strategy before using this indicator.
Does my computer have to be turned on to get alerts?
Yes. You will install this indicator on the desktop version of MT4 and it will send alerts to you via email, mobile app push notification or screen alert. You can also get text message alerts if your mobile phone provider allows email to text notifications. If you cannot keep your computer on all the time, you can also use a Virtual Private Server (VPS) service to host MT4 and send you alerts. See our resources page to find the VPS we recommend.

Is there a guarantee?
If you have any issue with the indicator, contact support and they will work with you for as long as it takes to get your issue resolved. However, since this is a downloadable product, we do NOT provide refunds.
Will this work with my broker?
This indicator will work with any broker that uses the MT4 platform.
Will this indicator work on a Mac?
This indicator will work on almost all Macs that have MT4 already installed. However, if you use programs like Wine, Crossover for Mac, and PlayOnMac to run MT4, you may have issues. We strongly advise against using these types of software that try to run Windows programs without an actual installation of Windows. Programs that require an installation of Windows (like VMWare or Parallels) usually work great. The best thing to do before buying this indicator is to download a free indicator and see if you can add it to your installation of MetaTrader. If you can, then this indicator will work also.
Will this indicator work on the mobile or web versions of MT4?
No, you can only use custom indicators with the desktop version of MT4. So the best way to get alerts when you are away from your desk, is to setup an alert indicator like this on your desktop or laptop, then send the alerts to your mobile device.
Can I use this indicator on more than one computer?
Yes, you can use this on any computer that you own.
