MACD with highlighted positive and negative trendThe values used by this indicator are equal to MACD 12 26 9 (and Signal). Only changes are made to looks:
If MACD closes higher than Signal, then we are seeing green. Else, we are seeing red.
Another point is that we get a blue circle when there is a trend change from bullish to bearish or vice versa. Please note that there needs to be an offset for this. We will only see the circle, when there already WAS (instead of is) a trend change.

This indicator is simply based on MACD HISTOGRAM'S 9 period EMA signal line
MACDAS = MACD HISTOGRAM= MACD - SIGNAL LINE of MACD
MACDAS SIGNAL LINE = 9 Period EMA of MACD
Note: Macd is originally calculated by using SMA but in this version both MACD and MACDAS and their signal lines are calculated by using EMA.
MACDAS provides earlier BUY / SELL signals than MACD.

Normalized MACD by[@hadi_saadat]This MACD is exactly like standard MACD, but extremely stable and normalized by EMAs(200,150,100,50,30).
So you need at-least 30 candle to see the chart.
The Huge differences can be seen when the close price scale over time changes for instance go to the weekly time-frame, see the normalized MACD and Standard MACD when the BTC price was below 10k or even below 5k and compare two MACD charts (The standard one chart get almost vanished when the price was much cheaper and it doesnt scale well), then zoom in the standard MACD at that period and again compare it to The Normalized one(When you zoom in you will see surprisingly both MACDs are exactly the same form and shape, however normalized one doesn't need zoom-in and it is well scaled among the time and different prices), You will be surprised that how stable it is.
The normalizes MACDs, Signals and Histograms values are comparable to any other assets (obviously in same time-frame).

Zero Lag MACD + Kijun-sen + EOM StrategyThis strategy offers a robust approach to identifying high-probability trading opportunities in the fast-paced cryptocurrency markets, particularly on lower timeframes (e.g., 5-minute). It leverages the synergistic power of three distinct indicators to confirm entries, ensuring a disciplined approach to risk management.
Key Components:
Zero Lag MACD Enhanced Version 1.2: This core momentum indicator is used to identify precise shifts in trend and momentum, offering reduced lag compared to traditional MACD. Entry signals are filtered based on the histogram's position (below for buys, above for sells) to enhance signal reliability.
Kijun-sen (Ichimoku Cloud): Acting as a dynamic support/resistance and trend filter, the Kijun-sen line confirms the prevailing market direction. Long entries are confirmed when price is above Kijun-sen, and short entries when price is below.
Ease of Movement (EoM): This volume-based oscillator provides crucial confirmation of price movements by measuring the ease with which price changes. Positive EoM confirms buying pressure, while negative confirms selling pressure, adding an essential layer of validation to trade setups.
How it Works:
The strategy generates entry signals only when all three indicators align simultaneously:
For Long Entries: A Zero Lag MACD buy signal (crossover below histogram) must coincide with price trading above the Kijun-sen, and the Ease of Movement indicator being above its zero line.
For Short Entries: A Zero Lag MACD sell signal (crossover above histogram) must coincide with price trading below the Kijun-sen, and the Ease of Movement indicator being below its zero line.
Entries are executed at the open of the candle immediately following the signal confirmation.
Risk Management:
Disciplined risk management is paramount to this strategy:
Dynamic Stop-Loss: An Average True Range (ATR) based stop-loss is implemented, set at 2.5 times the current ATR. This adapts the stop-loss distance to market volatility, ensuring sensible risk sizing.
Fixed Take-Profit: A consistent Risk-to-Reward (R:R) ratio of 1:1.2 is applied for all trades, promoting stable profit realization.
Customization & Optimization:
The strategy is built with fully customizable input parameters for each indicator (MACD lengths, Kijun-sen period, ATR period, ATR multiplier, and Risk-to-Reward ratio). This allows users to fine-tune the strategy for different assets, timeframes, and market conditions, facilitating robust backtesting and optimization.
Disclaimer: Trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. This strategy is provided for educational and informational purposes only. Always use proper risk management and conduct your own due diligence.
[NLR] - MACD OverlayOverview
This script is an enhanced version of the classic MACD indicator, designed to be plotted directly on the price chart as an overlay. It provides a visual representation of trend direction by coloring moving averages, a zero reference line, and an optional histogram. The script allows for a higher timeframe MACD calculation through a configurable multiplier.
Features
MACD Calculation: Uses Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) to calculate the MACD line, Signal line, and Histogram.
Higher Timeframe Support: Multiplier option to adjust MACD parameters for a broader trend perspective.
Color-Coded Trend Visualization: Dynamic color changes based on MACD crossovers for easy trend identification.
Optional Histogram: Toggle histogram visibility to see momentum shifts.
Zero Line Reference: Helps traders interpret trend direction and strength.
How to Use
Customize Inputs: Adjust Fast, Slow, and Signal lengths as needed. Modify the multiplier to view a higher timeframe MACD.
Enable Histogram: Use the "Show Histogram" toggle to display additional visual cues for momentum shifts.
Interpret the Signals:
Uptrend (Lime): Fast EMA is above Slow EMA.
Downtrend (Fuchsia): Fast EMA is below Slow EMA.
Histogram Changes: Increasing histogram bars indicate growing momentum, while decreasing bars suggest weakening momentum.
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.

MACD-V+MACD-V+ Indicator - Advanced Momentum Analysis
The MACD-V+ indicator is an enhanced version of the volatility-normalized MACD methodology developed by Alex Spiroglou. This approach addresses critical limitations of traditional MACD through ATR-based volatility normalization, providing comparable values across time and markets.
What is MACD-V?
MACD-V applies Average True Range (ATR) normalization to traditional MACD, creating a universal momentum indicator that works consistently across all markets and timeframes. The methodology was developed through extensive statistical research analyzing multiple markets and timeframes.
Formula: × 100
This normalization transforms MACD from price-dependent values into standardized momentum readings.
Traditional MACD Limitations
Limitation 1: Non-Comparable Values Across Time
Traditional MACD values cannot be compared across different time periods due to varying price levels. S&P 500 maximum MACD was 1.56 in 1957-1971, but reached 86.31 in 2019-2021 - not indicating 55x stronger momentum, but simply different price scales.
Solution: MACD-V provides comparable historical values where a reading of 100 today has the same mathematical meaning as 100 in any previous period.
Limitation 2: Non-Comparable Across Markets
Traditional MACD cannot compare momentum between different assets. S&P 500 MACD of 65 versus EUR/USD MACD of -0.5 reflects price differences, not relative strength.
Solution: MACD-V creates universal levels that work across all markets. The ±150 extreme levels apply consistently whether analyzing stocks, bonds, commodities, or currencies.
Limitation 3: No Objective Momentum System
Traditional MACD lacks universal overbought or oversold level definitions, making systematic analysis difficult.
Solution: MACD-V provides an objective 7-stage momentum lifecycle system with clearly defined zones and state transitions.
Limitation 4: Signal Line False Signals
In low momentum environments, traditional MACD generates multiple false signals as the line oscillates near zero.
Solution: MACD-V filters signal quality by identifying neutral zones (-50 to +50) where signal reliability is lower.
Limitation 5: Signal Line Timing Lag
During extreme momentum, traditional MACD signal line lags significantly due to large separation from the MACD line.
Solution: MACD-V anticipates timing issues in extreme momentum environments (±150) through zone-based analysis and lifecycle states.

Trading Applications
1. Lifecycle State Trading
Enter Long: When state changes to "RALLYING" (strong bullish momentum established)
Enter Short: When state changes to "REVERSING" (strong bearish momentum established)
Exit/Reduce: When state reaches "OVERBOUGHT" or "OVERSOLD" (extreme levels)
Avoid Trading: When state is "RANGING" (low momentum, unreliable signals)
2. Zone-Based Trading
Rally Zone (+50 to +150): Look for pullback entries (histogram dips)
Rebound Zone (-50 to -150): Look for bounce entries (histogram rises)
Extreme Zones (±150+): Prepare for reversal or take profits
Ranging Zone (-50 to +50): Wait for breakout confirmation
3. Signal Line Crossovers
Bullish Cross: MACD-V crosses above Signal line (momentum shift up)
Bearish Cross: MACD-V crosses below Signal line (momentum shift down)
Quality Filter: Trust crossovers in Rally/Rebound zones, ignore in Ranging zone
4. Zero Line Crosses
Cross Above 0: Transition to bullish regime
Cross Below 0: Transition to bearish regime
Trend Confirmation: Strong trends keep MACD-V on same side of zero
5. Histogram Extreme Strategy
Above +40: Short-term overbought - potential pullback
Below -40: Short-term oversold - potential bounce
Use with Trend: Buy dips to -40 in uptrend, sell rallies to +40 in downtrend
6. Strength Multiplier Analysis
> 1.75: Strong acceleration - powerful momentum, trend continuation highly likely
1.25 to 1.75: Moderate progression - normal healthy trend strength
0.75 to 1.25: Trend continuation - stable momentum near average strength
0.25 to 0.75: Watch for reversal - momentum weakening significantly
< 0.25: Trend exhaustion - very weak momentum, reversal possible

Best Practices
Trending Markets
Focus on "RALLYING" or "REVERSING" states for entries
Use histogram pullbacks (±40) for position additions
Monitor strength multiplier - exit if drops below 0.25
Take profits in extreme zones (±150+)
Yellow MA crossing histogram warns of momentum shift
Ranging Markets
Avoid trading when state is "RANGING"
Wait for clear zone entry (Rally/Rebound zone)
Use shorter timeframes for precision
Reduce position sizes due to lower reliability
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Higher timeframe: Identify market regime (lifecycle state)
Lower timeframe: Time precise entries (histogram pullbacks)
Alignment: Trade only when both timeframes agree on direction
Risk Management
Reduce position size in extreme zones (±150+)
Use lifecycle state changes for stop-loss placement
Scale out of positions when strength multiplier < 0.25
Avoid counter-trend trades in strong states (RALLYING/REVERSING)
Watch yellow MA - when it crosses below histogram absolute value, momentum weakening
Combining with LBR 3/10-V Indicator
MACD-V+ and LBR 3/10-V create a powerful two-timeframe momentum system for strategic direction and tactical timing.
Strategic Filter: MACD-V+ determines WHETHER to trade (market regime)
Tactical Precision: LBR 3/10-V determines WHEN to enter (timing)
Double Confirmation: Both indicators must agree on direction
Lifecycle Management: Exit when MACD-V+ state changes
Strength Validation: Use MACD-V+ multiplier for position sizing
Extreme Respect: Both hitting extremes = high reversal probability
Methodology
MACD-V methodology is based on volatility normalization using Average True Range (ATR). This approach transforms traditional MACD into a universal momentum indicator with statistically-validated zones and objectively-defined states.
The indicator implements:
ATR-based normalization for cross-market comparability
Statistical analysis for universal zone definitions (±150, ±50)
Lifecycle state system for objective trend identification
Absolute histogram MA with direction-aware visualization (ATR-length period)
Strength multiplier: ratio of current to average absolute momentum (always positive)
Dynamic status table adapting to active trend filters
MACD-V+ transforms momentum analysis from subjective interpretation into objective, quantifiable measurements. Combined with LBR 3/10-V for tactical timing, it provides a complete framework for systematic trading across all financial markets and timeframes.

Arpeet MACDOverview
This strategy is based on the zero-lag version of the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator, which captures short-term trends by quickly responding to price changes, enabling high-frequency trading. The strategy uses two moving averages with different periods (fast and slow lines) to construct the MACD indicator and introduces a zero-lag algorithm to eliminate the delay between the indicator and the price, improving the timeliness of signals. Additionally, the crossover of the signal line and the MACD line is used as buy and sell signals, and alerts are set up to help traders seize trading opportunities in a timely manner.
Strategy Principle
Calculate the EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the fast line (default 12 periods) and slow line (default 26 periods).
Use the zero-lag algorithm to double-smooth the fast and slow lines, eliminating the delay between the indicator and the price.
The MACD line is formed by the difference between the zero-lag fast line and the zero-lag slow line.
The signal line is formed by the EMA (default 9 periods) or SMA of the MACD line.
The MACD histogram is formed by the difference between the MACD line and the signal line, with blue representing positive values and red representing negative values.
When the MACD line crosses the signal line from below and the crossover point is below the zero axis, a buy signal (blue dot) is generated.
When the MACD line crosses the signal line from above and the crossover point is above the zero axis, a sell signal (red dot) is generated.
The strategy automatically places orders based on the buy and sell signals and triggers corresponding alerts.
Advantage Analysis
The zero-lag algorithm effectively eliminates the delay between the indicator and the price, improving the timeliness and accuracy of signals.
The design of dual moving averages can better capture market trends and adapt to different market environments.
The MACD histogram intuitively reflects the comparison of bullish and bearish forces, assisting in trading decisions.
The automatic order placement and alert functions make it convenient for traders to seize trading opportunities in a timely manner, improving trading efficiency.
Risk Analysis
In volatile markets, frequent crossover signals may lead to overtrading and losses.
Improper parameter settings may cause signal distortion and affect strategy performance.
The strategy relies on historical data for calculations and has poor adaptability to sudden events and black swan events.
Optimization Direction
Introduce trend confirmation indicators, such as ADX, to filter out false signals in volatile markets.
Optimize parameters to find the best combination of fast and slow line periods and signal line periods, improving strategy stability.
Combine other technical indicators or fundamental factors to construct a multi-factor model, improving risk-adjusted returns of the strategy.
Introduce stop-loss and take-profit mechanisms to control single-trade risk.
Summary
The MACD Dual Crossover Zero Lag Trading Strategy achieves high-frequency trading by quickly responding to price changes and capturing short-term trends. The zero-lag algorithm and dual moving average design improve the timeliness and accuracy of signals. The strategy has certain advantages, such as intuitive signals and convenient operation, but also faces risks such as overtrading and parameter sensitivity. In the future, the strategy can be optimized by introducing trend confirmation indicators, parameter optimization, multi-factor models, etc., to improve the robustness and profitability of the strategy.
