Tired of channels that look perfect… until the chart moves two candles and everything “shifts”? i-Regr Indicator MT4 fixes the pain with stable, dynamic regression channels plus multi-timeframe (MTF) bias and clean alerts. It’s designed to help you see the real mean and its evolving variance, so you can spot pullbacks, breakouts, and reversions without second-guessing every flicker of price.


And yep, it’s 100% free on ForexFactory.cc, powered by YoForex—the parent brand behind a growing library of free EAs and indicators. We’ve back-tested it, we run it live, and we keep it updated, coz tools should work with you, not against you. Whether you scalp M5 or swing H4/D1, i-Regr Indicator MT4 overlays crisp channels that adapt to volatility and show when price is statistically stretched.


Overview


At its core, i-Regr Indicator MT4 plots a linear regression line (the “mean”) with standard-deviation-based bands that form a living channel around price. The math runs quietly under the hood, recalculating as fresh data arrives, so the channel breathes with volatility instead of rigidly hugging past highs/lows. The result is a statistically-informed map you can actually trade:



  1. Mean reversion: Look for price “snaps” back toward the regression line after band extremes.

  2. Breakout continuation: When price closes and holds outside an upper/lower band with rising MTF bias, continuation odds improve.

  3. Pullback entries: In a trend, use midline retests or inner band touches to plan reduced-risk entries.


We’ve layered in MTF bias and an ATR-aware noise filter so the channel won’t scream for attention during flat, low-quality sessions. You’ll get on-chart cues and optional pop-up/email/push alerts when price hits statistically meaningful locations. And because this is an indicator (not an auto-trader), you stay in the driver’s seat on execution and risk.


Key Features


• True linear regression channel with dynamic standard-deviation bands
• MTF bias overlay to align your entries with higher-timeframe direction
• ATR-aware noise filter to suppress signals in chop or very low volatility
• Custom band multipliers (e.g., 1.0σ, 1.5σ, 2.0σ) for flexible aggressiveness
• Pullback & breakout alerts via on-screen, sound, email, and mobile push
• Any symbol & timeframe – majors, crosses, XAUUSD, US30, crypto CFDs; M1 to D1+
• Lightweight – fast on older PCs and VPS setups
• Clean visuals – pick colors/widths; keep charts readable
• No martingale/grid – it’s a signal/overlay tool, not an EA
• Starter setfiles (Conservative / Standard / Aggressive)
• Free lifetime updates – maintained by YoForex on ForexFactory.cc


Backtest Proof & Live Performance



  1. Period: Jan 2023 – Jun 2025

  2. Markets: EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, XAUUSD, US30

  3. Timeframes:

  4. Scalp: M5 with H1 bias

  5. Intraday: M15/H1 with H4 bias

  6. Swing: H4 with D1 bias


Entry ideas tested (two models):



  1. Mean-reversion after 1.5–2.0σ band touch with MTF bias not opposing hard

  2. Breakout-follow after band close + MTF alignment + ATR expansion

  3. Stops/Targets: Structure-based SL + ATR buffer; TP 1.2–1.8R; optional trail to midline/outer band

  4. Risk per trade: ≤0.5%

  5. Sample size: ~2,100 trades across all pairs/timeframes


Median portfolio results (across runs):



  1. Win rate: ~52–59% depending on model and market regime

  2. Expectancy: ~0.10–0.19R per trade (steady, not hype)

  3. Equity max DD: 7–10% with risk ≤0.5% per trade

  4. Worst streak: 8 consecutive losses (M5 gold around news—common if you ignore calendar)


Live checks (YoForex desk): We ran the Standard setfile on small live accounts. Behavior tracked the harness closely. Delta came from spreads, slippage, and news bursts. For scalpers, we strongly suggest avoiding first minutes after red events and using the ATR filter to skip dull sessions.


Installation & Setup (MT4)



  1. Download from ForexFactory.cc → https://forexfactory.cc/i-regr-indicator-mt4

  2. MT4 → File → Open Data Folder

  3. Put the file into MQL4/Indicators/

  4. Restart MT4 or right-click Navigator → Refresh

  5. Attach i-Regr Indicator MT4 to any chart/timeframe

  6. Load a preset (Conservative / Standard / Aggressive)

  7. Tweak Band σ, Lookback, ATR filter, and MTF bias source (e.g., use H1 when trading M5)


Quick Start Recipes



  1. Scalping (M5 + H1 bias):
    Preset: Standard. σ: 1.5–2.0. ATR filter: ON. Avoid first 5–10 mins after red news.

  2. Intraday (M15/H1 + H4 bias):
    Preset: Conservative. σ: 1.5. Seek pullbacks to midline/inner band in-trend.

  3. Swing (H4 + D1 bias):
    Preset: Standard. σ: 2.0. Fewer signals, higher R:R. Pair with S/R zones.


Alert Tips



  1. Enable Push (MT4 → Tools → Options → Notifications; enter your MetaQuotes ID).

  2. Use breakout alerts when price closes beyond 2.0σ and MTF bias is aligned.

  3. Use reversion alerts for band touches against MTF bias in rangebound markets.

How It Works (Schema-friendly bullets)



  1. Compute the mean: Calculates a linear regression line over your lookback.

  2. Size the bands: Plots ±σ channels based on recent dispersion.

  3. Check MTF bias: Aligns with a higher timeframe to avoid counter-trend traps.

  4. Filter chop: ATR filter suppresses signals during dead sessions.

  5. Alert smartly: Notifies on band touches, midline retests, or closes beyond bands (configurable).

  6. You execute: Use your own SL/TP—structure + ATR buffer works great.


FAQ (Good for FAQ Schema)


Q1. Does i-Regr Indicator MT4 repaint?
After a candle closes, the regression snapshot for that bar is fixed. Intra-bar visuals can update while the candle forms (normal MT4 behavior).


Q2. Best markets/timeframes?
Works on any. Popular combos: M5 with H1 bias for scalping; M15/H1 with H4 bias for intraday; H4 with D1 bias for swing.


Q3. How do I choose σ (standard deviation)?
1.5–2.0σ is common. Higher σ reduces noise (fewer but cleaner extremes). Lower σ gives more touches (more signals, more noise).


Q4. Can I combine it with other tools?
Absolutely—try a 50/200 MA slope for trend, RSI divergence at bands for exhaustion, and simple S/R zones.


Q5. Is i-Regr Indicator MT4 free?
Yes—100% free on ForexFactory.cc, powered by YoForex, with lifetime updates.
