MACD-V Momentum

118
The MACD-V (Moving Average Convergence Divergence – Volatility Normalized) is an award-winning momentum indicator created by Alex Spiroglou, CFTe, DipTA (ATAA). It improves on the traditional MACD by normalizing momentum with volatility, solving several well-known limitations of classic indicators:

✅ Time stability – readings are consistent across history

✅ Cross-market comparability – works equally on stocks, crypto, forex, and commodities

✅ Objective momentum framework – universal thresholds at +150 / -150, +50 / -50

✅ Cleaner signals – reduces false signals in ranges and lag in high momentum

By dividing the MACD spread by ATR, the indicator expresses momentum in volatility units, allowing meaningful comparison across timeframes and markets.

MACD-V defines seven objective momentum states:

Risk (Oversold): below -150

Rebounding: -150 to +50 and above signal

Rallying: +50 to +150 and above signal

Risk (Overbought): above +150

Retracing: above -50 and below signal

Reversing: -150 to -50 and below signal

Ranging: between -50 and +50 for N bars

Optional background tints highlight the active regime (Bull above 200-MA, Bear below 200-MA).
Rare extremes (e.g., MACD-V < -100 in a bull regime) are tagged for additional context.
