MACD Crossover Backtest MACD – Moving Average Convergence Divergence. The MACD is calculated
by subtracting a 26-day moving average of a security's price from a
12-day moving average of its price. The result is an indicator that
oscillates above and below zero. When the MACD is above zero, it means
the 12-day moving average is higher than the 26-day moving average.
This is bullish as it shows that current expectations (i.e., the 12-day
moving average) are more bullish than previous expectations (i.e., the
26-day average). This implies a bullish, or upward, shift in the supply/demand
lines. When the MACD falls below zero, it means that the 12-day moving average
is less than the 26-day moving average, implying a bearish shift in the
supply/demand lines.
A 9-day moving average of the MACD (not of the security's price) is usually
plotted on top of the MACD indicator. This line is referred to as the "signal"
line. The signal line anticipates the convergence of the two moving averages
(i.e., the movement of the MACD toward the zero line).
Let's consider the rational behind this technique. The MACD is the difference
between two moving averages of price. When the shorter-term moving average rises
above the longer-term moving average (i.e., the MACD rises above zero), it means
that investor expectations are becoming more bullish (i.e., there has been an
upward shift in the supply/demand lines). By plotting a 9-day moving average of
the MACD, we can see the changing of expectations (i.e., the shifting of the
supply/demand lines) as they occur.

Hull MACD with Force Index Backcolorswww.tradingview.com
Like many other indicators this tells the past and it will dutifully follow the future price changes whatever they will be.
This is an upgrade of the "Hull Moving Average Convergence/Divergence" low lag indicator in my scripts. Added Elder Force Index (background colors) to include effects of Volume.
When EFI goes positive the background goes green, when it slopes up (more positive than previous bar) it is darker green. Negative red and slope down darker red.
I find it useful in all time frames but I use mostly hour and day. The direction color combined with price action and macd tell whether the volume supports the price movement and the shading (darker green for increasing up volume and darker red for increasing down volume) tells of the degree of support.
Since when the EFI is positive and dropping, for example, the price can be dropping with opposite for negative.
Dark shading tells where the EFI and possibly the price is headed (at the moment).
Light shading says to check more on other indications for likely direction.
Changed also the histogram color so it stands out of background and added hlines to make relative volatility and peak height easier to see.
Anyway help yourself if any of this code is useful to you, enjoy, happy trading and Keep Smiling!

MACD OverlayMACD Overlay indicator plots the MACD directly on price. This helps you better understand the MACD indicator and filter the false signals.
MACD_TracerSimple Script for a very fast MACD
Best used as an Indicator Overlay for studying detailed movement.
Indicator over Indicator
Using as a Indicator overlay. You must drag and drop an indicator over another indicator. After you have the visual of both indicators in one indicator box, you must go to CHART PROPERTIES and SCALE LEFT . This way both your indicators are scaled to same axis.
Analysis
Having both indicators allows me the ability to better detect what the indicator is specialized to do. In this case I have one indicator that has strength at detecting Momentum shifts and the other detects Divergences.
EMARCOThis is the study of the ratio of the MACD exponential moving averages, 0.993 and 1.003 were used to define the overextended positions since this is the highest the oscillator usually goes, price tends to reverse when overextended. RE1 (ratio equation 1) = the fast Exponential Moving Average (12 points) divided by the slow Exponential Moving Average (26 points) and RE2 is reciprocal. Here we see that when the RE1 is greater than RE2 price tends to drop and so when the opposite is true

MACD DEUTER 2 colour v0.2 by JustUncleLThis is an updated version of the MACD DEUTER 2 colour indicator. This version includes the Signal line and option to change the length calculating the MACD direction change.
Ergotic MACD Strategy Backtest This is one of the techniques described by William Blau in his book
"Momentum, Direction and Divergence" (1995). If you like to learn more,
we advise you to read this book. His book focuses on three key aspects
of trading: momentum, direction and divergence. Blau, who was an electrical
engineer before becoming a trader, thoroughly examines the relationship
between price and momentum in step-by-step examples. From this grounding,
he then looks at the deficiencies in other oscillators and introduces some
innovative techniques, including a fresh twist on Stochastics. On directional
issues, he analyzes the intricacies of ADX and offers a unique approach to help
define trending and non-trending periods.
Blau`s indicator is like usual MACD, but it plots opposite of meaningof
stndard MACD indicator.

Zero Lag MACD Enhanced - Version 1.1ENHANCED ZERO LAG MACD
Version 1.1
Based on ZeroLag EMA - see Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities, April 2000
Original version by user Glaz. Thanks !
Ideas and code from @yassotreyo version.
Tweaked by Albert Callisto (AC)
New features:
Added original signal line formula
Added optional EMA on MACD
Added filling between the MACD and signal line
I looked at other versions of the zero lag and noticed that the histogram was slightly different. After looking at other zero lags on TV, I noticed that the algorithm implementation of Glanz generated a modified signal line. I decided to add the old version to be compliant with the original algorithm that you will find in other platforms like MT4, FXCM, etc.
So now you can choose if you want the original algorithm or Glanz version. It's up to you then to choose which one you prefer. I also added an extra EMA applied on the MACD. This is used in a system I am currently studying and can be of some interest to filter out false signals.

Candlestick Trend Indicator v0.5 by JustUncleLRequested Update to this Indicator alert project. In this update I have added the option to be able select which Price Action candles you want included in the display and the generated alarm Alert. Other changes also included in this update:
Also added a Price Action candle for "Last Fractal S/R Break", this also a good continuation indication.
Added option to select a different moving average types for directional MA line.
Modified some default settings, using HullMA instead of Zero Lag EMA and standard MACD settings(12,26,9).
Description:
This is a trend following indicator and alert for Binary Options based on Candlestick patterns and trend line -
NOTE: original system was a forex trading system.
This code combines a number of indicators to create an overall trading strategy.
The indicator recognises and displays some useful candle named defined patterns that are used to support trend continuation:
Bearish + Bullish PinBars
Dark Cloud Cover
Piecing Line
Bullish + Bearish Harami
Bullish + Bearish Engulfing Candle
Bullish + Bearish Last Fractal S/R break
Also recognises main Price Action candles from ChrisMoody (CM), the four(4) price action patterns are colored coded bars:
Yellow = Inside Bar - breakout/continuance
Orange = Outside Bar - breakout/continuance
Aqua/Fuschia = Up/Down Shaved Bars - Buying/Selling pressure
Red/Green = Possible reversal PinBars - Reverse Down / reverse Up
The highlighted candles (maroon and darker green) represent the defined PA patterns that have been confirmed following the current trend direction that is indicated by the Hull MA(20) line (can select a different type of MA, or even disable) and confirmed by MACD direction (can be disabled). The confirmed Alerts are indication by green (buy) and red (sell) dots at the bottom of the chart. An alert is generated from this selection for the alert condition of the alarming system.
The fractal upper/lower break lines are also draw, if the (optional) last fractal break line is broken by a highlighted bar then this indicates a stronger trend conformation.
The MACD indicator MACD DEUTER 2 colour(12,26,9) you can visually see the MACD histogram colours with MACD direction - needs "MACD DEUTER 2 colour" indicator.
This multi-indicator set up is suitable for 1hr, 4hr and daily charts with 1-4 candle expiry.
