Quick Summary:
Max Ribbon Indicator for MT4 is an advanced dual-ribbon trend system developed by Stefano Frisetti.
The indicator combines two ribbon systems to accurately identify market direction: a Fast Ribbon (MaxRib2) that responds to short-term movements, and a Slow Ribbon (MaxRib3) that filters noise and shows the main trend. The proprietary algorithm uses triple exponential smoothing, momentum analysis, and adaptive trend filtering. The result is beautifully clear: GREEN ribbon = bullish trend, RED ribbon = bearish trend.
No guessing. No conflicting signals. Just clear, visual trend identification across any asset and any timeframe.

Watch Max Ribbon in Action

Max Ribbon uses two complementary ribbon systems:
MaxRib2 — The Fast Ribbon
- Responsive to short-term price movements
- Ideal for capturing rapid reversals
- Use for precise entry timing
- Changes color quickly when momentum shifts
MaxRib3 — The Slow Ribbon
- Filters out market noise
- Displays the main trend direction
- Perfect for medium- to long-term trading
- Changes color only on confirmed trend shifts
The magic happens when you use them together. Fast ribbon for timing, slow ribbon for direction.

The Proprietary Algorithm
Max Ribbon’s algorithm combines three analytical approaches:
- Triple Exponential Smoothing: Reduces lag while maintaining trend clarity
- Momentum Analysis: Detects acceleration and deceleration in price movement
- Adaptive Trend Filter: Adjusts sensitivity based on market conditions
The result is a ribbon that changes color smoothly and decisively:
- GREEN = BULLISH Trend
- RED = BEARISH Trend
- YELLOW = Transitional (wait for confirmation)
How to Trade With Max Ribbon
Entry Signals
- LONG: When the ribbon changes from RED to GREEN
- SHORT: When the ribbon changes from GREEN to RED
Trend Confirmation
- STRONG Trend: MaxRib2 and MaxRib3 are the same color
- TRANSITIONING Trend: MaxRib2 and MaxRib3 are different colors (wait for confirmation)
Exit Rules
- Close the position when the ribbon changes color
- Or use the opposite ribbon as a trailing stop
Recommended Strategy
- Use MaxRib3 (slow ribbon) to identify the main trend
- Use MaxRib2 (fast ribbon) for entry timing
- Go LONG only when both ribbons are GREEN
- Go SHORT only when both ribbons are RED
This simple rule keeps you aligned with the dominant trend while timing entries on the faster ribbon.

Compatible Assets
Max Ribbon works on virtually any tradeable asset:
- Forex: All currency pairs (majors, minors, exotics)
- Indices: DAX, S&P500, NASDAQ, Dow Jones, etc.
- Commodities: Gold, Silver, Oil, Natural Gas, etc.

- Stocks: Any stock CFD available on MT4
Recommended Timeframes
- Scalping: M5, M15
- Intraday: M30, H1
- Swing Trading: H4, D1
The dual-ribbon system adapts to any timeframe — shorter timeframes produce more signals, longer timeframes produce more reliable signals.

User Reviews
★★★★★ “Finally, trend clarity.”
I’ve tried dozens of trend indicators over the years. Most give conflicting signals or lag terribly. Max Ribbon is different — when both ribbons agree, the trend is real. Simple as that.
— Marcus T., London
★★★★★ “Perfect for my swing trades.”
I use the slow ribbon on H4 to identify the weekly trend, then drop to H1 for entries. The color system makes it impossible to get confused about direction.
— Elena K., Madrid
★★★★☆ “Works great on crypto.”
Been using it on BTCUSD and ETHUSD. The ribbons catch the big moves beautifully. Only giving 4 stars because I wish there were alert notifications when colors change.

Why Ribbons Work Better Than Lines
Traditional moving average crossovers use thin lines that can be hard to read at a glance. Max Ribbon fills the space between the averages, creating a visual “zone” that immediately communicates:
- Trend Direction: Green zone = up, Red zone = down
- Trend Strength: Wider ribbon = stronger trend
- Trend Transitions: Ribbon compression signals potential reversal
- Price Position: Price above ribbon = bullish, below = bearish
One indicator gives you four pieces of information simultaneously.
Settings & Configuration
Max Ribbon keeps settings simple:
- Show MaxRib2: True/False — toggle the fast ribbon
- Show MaxRib3: True/False — toggle the slow ribbon
Default settings work optimally for most traders. Advanced users can show/hide individual ribbons to customize their view.
