Magic Lines MT5
MGH-MagicLine for MetaTrader 5 — trend detection, multi-timeframe divergence, and full per-line timeframe control in one window. Everything the MT4 version offers, plus the expanded timeframe range that MT5 makes possible.
MagicLine was built to replace the two-tool workflow most trend and divergence traders rely on — MultiStoch for reading the trend across timeframes, and MultiMACD for catching divergence signals. Both tools in one window, cleaner output, less lag, and a set of capabilities neither tool had on its own.
The MT5 version delivers everything in the MT4 edition — and goes further. Because MetaTrader 5 natively supports a much wider range of chart periods, this version adds full per-line timeframe control: assign any MT5 timeframe to any of the six lines, or let the built-in Auto algorithm handle the spread for you.
What MT5 Adds — Full Timeframe Control
This is the feature that makes the MT5 version the more powerful edition for traders who care about precision in their multi-timeframe setup. The new Line TimeFrame section gives you two modes:
TimeFrame Type — Auto vs From Inputs
Choose how the six lines are assigned their timeframes — fully automatic, or fully manual.
The indicator applies a smart neighboring-timeframe rule: each successive line is assigned a timeframe at least 3× larger than the previous one, calculated automatically from your current chart period. Open on M15 and the lines spread upward intelligently. Switch to H1 and they re-anchor to the new context — zero reconfiguration required. This is the recommended mode for most traders.
Take complete manual control. Assign any MT5 period — from M1 to Monthly — independently to each of the six lines (L1 through L6). The full MT5 timeframe list is available: M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M10, M12, M15, M20, M30, H1, H2, H3, H4, H6, H8, H12, D1, W1, MN. Build the exact multi-timeframe spread your strategy demands.
Three Line Engines — One Indicator
Choose the Line Type in settings and the calculation engine changes — with the active mode printed in the indicator window name so you always know what you are looking at.
| Engine | Character | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Slow | Lowest noise. Smooth lines built to reveal the long-term trend direction. Lines reaching ±0.2 confirm the dominant trend. | Position & swing traders |
| Long | Clean trend detection with more responsiveness. The balanced everyday choice — and the author’s personal favorite. | All-round trend trading |
| Fast | Quickest reaction. Tracks momentum shifts almost instantly. | Scalpers & intraday traders |
Six Lines, Six Timeframes
- Up to 6 independent lines, each on its own timeframe — assigned automatically or manually.
- Hover any line to confirm its timeframe via tooltip.
- Toggle each line ON/OFF with the on-chart buttons (1–6) — no need to reopen settings.
- Each line’s color is fixed and shown in the enable setting name: L1 LightGray, L2 Green, L3 Red, L4 Aqua, L5 DodgerBlue, L6 MidnightBlue.
- Adjustable Overbought / Center / Oversold zones act as a live trend-strength gauge.
Regular & Hidden Divergence — Both Types, Drawn on Price
Set Divergence Type to Regular or Hidden; the mode (RD / HD) is added to the indicator name, so running both instances simultaneously stays perfectly clear.
The Reversal Signal
Price reaches a new extreme while the indicator pulls back. Highlights potential turning points before they fully develop.
The Continuation Signal
Confirms that a pullback is just a pullback — and the trend is preparing to resume. The favorite tool of serious trend-followers.
Every divergence is drawn in the indicator window and directly on the price chart, connecting the exact candles involved, color-coded per timeframe. The color alone tells you which timeframe produced the signal — no manual peak-matching required. The Increase Divergence Range input extends detection to farther peaks and valleys, surfacing larger-scale setups that standard tools miss.
Two Core Strategies
- Divergence Stacking. Multiple RD (or HD) signals from different timeframes converging on the same candle. Each color is a different timeframe agreeing at the same spot. The more that stack, the higher the conviction — and the cleaner the read.
- RD + HD Confluence. Run two instances side by side: Hidden divergence from a higher timeframe (Daily/Weekly) for direction, Regular divergence from a lower timeframe (H1/H4) for timing. When both windows agree at the same turn, the setup speaks for itself.
Three Independent Alerts
OB/OS Break
Momentum entering the Overbought or Oversold zone — trend strength confirmed.
Center Break
A line crossing the center level — early sign of a shift in control.
Divergence
Fires the moment a Regular or Hidden divergence is confirmed on your chart.
Delivery: popup, sound, email, or push notification. Signal Candle Shift (0 or 1) controls whether alerts fire on the live candle or only on closed-candle confirmation.
