MACD Seasons by Dr Ken Longthis specific Moving Average Divergence Convergence Seasons Indicator is made by Dr Ken Long Tortoise Capital brings a unique way of the flow of the market, the 4 seasons are used to describe the areas of the MACD so for example when the area is below zero and hasn't crossed the EMA 5 we call that winter which is very bear bias, once you get support in winter and crosses above the EMA 5 we call that fall which is the first indication of support for price and some weakness toward the downside. if the MACD is above the zero line we call that summer which is a very bull bias valued area, and once it crosses below the EMA 5 then that's where we call fall mode showing us weakness and very slight indication of a possible reversal. the MACD can be both used for swing trade and day trading, it provides a unique insight to the markets showing the layers of a trend using seasons.

MACD with Lines - ChartWhat is MACD with Lines - Chart and why do you need it?
I use it for chart analysis to identify key macd /signal levels from which bullish / bearish market structure continues to develop.
Chart means that every Macd /Signal cross above/below the signal lines will be notified on your Chart and not on your MACD Indicator. To see them on your chart please choose "MACD with Lines - Default" in my library.
Once Signal, Macd or the Histogramm cross over or under your upper or lower signal line you will see background colors which you can adjust in the settings menu.
This small indicator is for a larger project which will be uploaded in several days/weeks.

MACD classic strategy setupsetup for a classic MACD strategy with some filter to choose.
it keep the default setup of MACD because is the most popular.
it place the stop loss and take profit based on the trading rush video of MACD, if you want a different profict factor you can change until to reach 3, over this as a fixed risk reward don't have so much sense
MACD With Trend Filter: Visual Backtest Module TemplateSample Strategy: MACD Crossover with trend filter options
MA Filter : Price Close Above MA, Search for Buy, Price Close Below MA, Search for Sell
ADX Filter : Take trade only when ADX is above certain treshold
MACD Signal : MACD Cross above signal line while under 0 line indicate Buy Signal
MACD Cross below signal line while above 0 line indicate Sell Signal
-----------------------------
Using Alert Module:
Enable Alert --> Enable TV's alert and plot signal to chart
Alert Type --> Set to take Buy only, Sell only or Both alert
----------------------------
Using Backtest Module:
Enable Backtest --> Enable Backtest simulation
Backtest Type --> Set to take Buy only, Sell only or Both
SL Type -->
ATR : Set SL in ATR times Multiplier below/above entry price
Fixed : Set SL in fixed point below entry point (in 'Dollar'). e.g. for Stocks -> 0.5 equals to 50cent while for EURUSD currency -> 0.005 equal to 50 pips
HiLo Bar : Set SL at highest/lowest wick of previous bar plus/minus Fixed point. e.g. EURUSD HiLo=3 and Fixed Point = 0.0005, buy trade will place SL 5 Pips below lowest of previous 3 bar
SL ATR Period --> Set Lookback Period used for SL's ATR calculation
SL ATR Multi --> Set ATR Multiplier for SL
SL Fixed --> Set Fixed Level for SL (Use when SL Type is either Fixed or HiLo Bar)
SL Bar --> Set Number of previous bar to check for SL placement
TP RR Ratio --> Set TP based on RR multiplier. e.g. 2 means TP level will be twice further from entry point compared to Entry-SL distance.
Notes: The point is for preliminary testing, so it only supports 1 trade at a time and no Trailing Stop
----------------------------
Disclaimer:
This script main objective is to create my personal indicator template so that i just have to modify the indicator module for preliminary testing in future.
Testing Alert Module so i can re-use it as template in future study/indicator
Testing Visual Backtest Module so i can re-use it as template in future study/indicator
i believe using Strategy function is a better approach for this but the entry/exit level seems to be hit n miss (at least for me, still trying to figure what i did wrong)
also, i rather code the strategy in other platform where i can use the more accurate tick data if i want to validate backtest statistics.
My study scripts was built only to test/visualize an idea to see its viability and if it can be used to optimize existing strategy.
credit: ADX code are originally from "ADX and DI" by @BeikabuOyaji although i re-wrote so i can have cleaner read and use RMA instead of SMA
MACD 50x Leveraged Short Strategy with Real Equity
Hello there ,
Short version of the Macd Long strategy.
MACD Long strategy:

Position size: (for each trade) 1%
Stop-Loss: (2% Above Entry Level)
Long: macd crossunder
Exit: macd crossover
Or ofc touching the stop-Loss value as predicted.
These strategies are just examples.
The goal is to observe true equity and equity change.
Warning: This strategy simulation is for Short direction only.

Rules using ( MACD 12 26 Close 9 ):
Place a SELL signal when :
1. Histogram bar turned RED from GREEN
2. Within the previous group of green histogram bars the maximum value reached/passed +5.5
3. MACD fast & slow have values > 0
Place a BUY signal when :
1. Histogram bar turned GREEN from RED
2. Within the previous group of RED histogram bars has maximum value reached/passed -5.0
3. MACD fast & slow have values < 0
MACD Indicator [SystemAlpha]This is a MACD indicator enhanced with:
- Show MACD and Signal Only or Histogram Only or Both
- Show Buy and Sell Alert - MACD Cross
- Show Bar Color
- Show Regular and Hidden divergence
- Show Divergence Labels
- Generate Alerts: Buy/Sell and Divergence
MACD Crossover Trend IndicatorHow this indicator works:
This indicator detects MACD Crossovers based on the current trend. It checks wether the current close price is above or below the 200 EMA and therefore decides whether we are in an up- or down trend.
UP-TREND: If the MACD is below 0 and crosses up the signal line, then this is a BUY signal!
DOWN-TREND: If the MACD is above 0 and crosses down the signal line, then this is a SELL signal!
How to trade this:
First rule: Be consistent!
Second rule: You will have lost trades and losing streaks - deal with it!
First set the SL slightly below the last significant low (eventually add/subtract the ATR value to/from it)
Then adjust the TP and ALWAYS use a RR ratio of 1.5.
NEVER get out of the trade earlier
Take every possible trade!
Important: Money management is key... so be consistent!
Have fun! :)
Quadratic Weighted (QWMA) MACDMACD but on the Quadratic Weighted Moving Average instead of regular Moving Average
"The quadratic moving average ( QMA ) or quadratic weighted moving average (QWMA) is a type of moving average who is closer to the price when price is up trending. This moving average is defined as the square root of the moving average of the squared price." @alexgrover ()
Base MACD code from @RicardoSantos ()
MACD Divergence Tops + BottomsMACD Indicator which plots local peaks and troughs in divergence.
"Classic" Divergence is specified as:
- A higher price, with reduced MACD high --> Potential Sell Point
- A lower price, with higher MACD low --> Potential Buy Point
"Alternative" Divergence is specified as:
- A higher MACD high, with reduced price --> Potential Sell Point
- A lower MACD low, with higher price --> Potential Buy Point
MACD Divergence should be used in combination with other indicators. This indicator identifies local tops and bottoms, with potential for macro trend shifts.
MACD Enhanced System MTF with optional TSL and Alerts [LTB]This script is developed to analyse MACD, MACD Signal, MACD Histogram movements by using current and higher time frame. Script calculates higher time frame automatically, no manuel entry. there is trailing stop loss line that is optional.
You can change the parameters as you wish.
btw. you should know that MACD is more successful when there is a trend.
I already shared this as a strategy script. Some ppl wanted to see the code.

Zero-Lag MACD/PPOMACD/PPO Indicator, with optional faster EMA's to reduce lag.
-Use "MA TYPE" to select SMA, EMA, Double-EMA, Triple-EMA, or Hull as the MACD Source. Default is 'EMA'.
-Use "FAST MA" and "SLOW MA" to set the fast and slow period lengths.
-Use "SIGNAL TYPE" to select SMA, EMA, Double-EMA, Triple-EMA, or Hull as the Signal formula. Default is 'EMA'.
-Use "SIGNAL LENGTH" to set the Signal period length.
-Use "HIST. SIZE" to change the scaling of the histogram and make it stand out more.
-Use "COLOR SIGNALS" to select when to signal green/red on the MACD line.
--- "None" is always black.
--- "Over/Under" will signal based on MACD being over or under the Signal line.
--- "Rising/Falling" will signal based on MACD being over/under the Signal line and both are rising/falling.
-Use "PPO INSTEAD" to use Price Percent Oscillator scaling (works better for long-term and large price fluctuation).
MACD with Directional ColorsThis MACD indicator colors the MACD and signal lines according to the direction they are moving.
- Eliminates the histogram from the traditional MACD indicator.
- Uses a histogram for the MACD line.
- Includes Bollinger Bands for the MACD line to help detect squeezes
Volume Weighted MACD (VWMA, 4 Color, Color-blind Friendly)MACD built out of two Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) lines of different periods. The signal line is still an EMA of the MACD line, just like with the normal MACD .
Colors are picked to be friendly with partial colorblindness, and can be modified in the indicator settings.
[M] MACD + SMI
MACD + SMI -2.23% Ergodic
When leaving the zone, MACD is painted in different colors, while in the area - is gray.
In the settings you can disable shading in gray or SMI -2.23% .
Works on the major currency pairs, the rest has not been tested. Because it did for me)
//Google translate
----------------------
МАКД+SMI Ergodic
При выходе из зоны, MACD окрашивается в разные цвета, при нахождении в зоне - остается серым.
В настройках есть возможность отключить закрашивание в серый или SMI -2.23% .
Работает на основных валютных парах, на остальных не тестировался, потому что делал для себя)
MACD + Stochastic, Double Strategy (by ChartArt)This strategy combines the classic stochastic strategy to buy when the stochastic is oversold with a classic MACD strategy to buy when the MACD histogram value goes above the zero line. Only difference to the classic stochastic is a default setting of 71 for overbought (classic setting 80) and 29 for oversold (classic setting 20).
Therefore this strategy goes long if the MACD histogram goes above zero and the stochastic indicator detects a oversold condition (value below 29). If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short (stochastic overbought condition with a value above 71 and the MACD histogram falling below the zero line value).
Please be aware that this pure double strategy using simply two classic indicators does not have any stop loss or take profit money management logic.
All trading involves high risk; past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
MACD + SMA 200 Strategy (by ChartArt)Here is a combination of the classic MACD (moving average convergence divergence indicator) with the classic slow moving average SMA with period 200 together as a strategy.
This strategy goes long if the MACD histogram and the MACD momentum are both above zero and the fast MACD moving average is above the slow MACD moving average. As additional long filter the recent price has to be above the SMA 200. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short. For the worst case there is a max intraday equity loss of 50% filter.

MACD trend heatmap (by ChartArt)This is an overlay indicator which uses the classic period settings and signals from the MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence) indicator to overlay a heatmap using all the information the MACD generates with its three periods (12,26,9).
The first two moving averages which the MACD uses (12 and 26) can be plotted on the chart like usual EMAs.
In addition to the background color function (the heatmap) and the EMAs, there is an optional bar color alert when the uptrend or the downtrend as measured by the MACD appears to be very strong.
MACD AreaThis indicator calculates and displays the cumulative area for each region above and below the zero line in the MACD histogram. This area measurement serves as a momentum metric, where larger cumulative areas indicate stronger momentum. Divergences between the area and price can also potentially indicate an impending reversal. For example, when the stock price makes a higher high but the area makes a lower high, the current momentum may be unsustainable.
MACD MTF LinesThe indicator shows the MACD histogram sign (positive or negative) for several timeframes at once. You can see at a glance how the price is trending across higher and lower timeframes.
The code uses recursive calculations for the SMA and EMA to avoid lookahead errors and repainting on higher timeframes.
Note that, for lower timeframes, the line becomes yellow to the left because history is limited and there are not enough bars to calculate.
MACD DivergencesUpdate of MACD indicator which shows the most recent, and developing, price action divergences with the histogram.
