Stock Market Strategy : VWAP, MACD, EMA, Breakout, BBHello there,
Today I bring you a stock market strategy, specialized in NASDAQ stocks.
Its a daytrading strategy, that can only do a max of 1 trade per day. In this case it only trades the first 2 opening hours of the market.
The rules are simple :
We follow the trend based on a big EMA, in this case 200, after that, we check for VWAP direction , then, we check histogram from MACD. This is the simple logic of the strategy.
Inside there is another strategy, that not just do the above, but also uses Bollinger bands, and checks for breakout of bottom or top line. Also it uses Average directional Index, for even a bigger criteria .
So for example a long condition it would be : candle is above the ema, and candle is above vwap, and histogram is positive, and candle break the top bb level and ADI < 40 -> long signal . The opposite works for short(ADI > 20).
In this case all this criterias are between the first 2 hours of market. So we enter between the first hour, and exit in the next hour. For this we need to use very short time frames.
Hope you enjoy it.
Let me know if you have any questions
Divergence of Market Breadth & Price deduction indicatorHow it begin?
Traders and investors use market breadth in order to assess the index’s overall health. Market breadth can be a reliable, if not an accurate, indicator of an upcoming price rise in the index. Similarly, it can also provide early warning signs for a future price decline.
What is it?
market breadth in this case refer to percentage of stocks above 20 Simple Moving Average,which could be used as a barometer for the market.
How it works?
This paticular indicator compare the divergence of Nasdaq 100 and Russell 2000 percentage of stocks above 20 Simple Moving Average.
This indicator also include a deduction price method ,which is inspired from LEI & LoneCapital
MA MTF Momentum HistogramMy own interpretation indicator which i call multi time frame moving averages momentum with NO LAG EMA support (Optional).
The indicator is calculated by subtracting the long-term EMA from the short-term EMA .
This pretty much resembles the MACD moving averages calculation but without the smoothing of the histogram.
Can also be used to find divergences.
The background shows the main trend with higher time frame which can be set in the settings.
Aimed to use with Higher time frame (Double or more) but can also work with lower time frame.
How to use the indicator?
==Histogram==
Green: Momentum of asset is positive and increasing.
Lighter Green: Momentum of asset is still positive but decreasing and can revert to negative momentum.
Red: Momentum of asset is negative and increasing.
Lighter Red: Momentum of asset is still negative but increasing and revert to positive momentum.
==Background Color - Main Trend==
Green: HTF (Higher time frame) momentum is positive.
RED: HTF momentum is negative.

NOTE: BARS ARE COLORED BY DEFAULT WITH HISTOGRAM COLORS! (Can be changed in settings)
Cycles StrategyThis is back-testable strategy is a modified version of the Stochastic strategy. It is meant to accompany the modified Stochastic indicator: "Cycles".
Modifications to the Stochastic strategy include;
1. Programmable settings for the Stochastic Periods (%K, %D and Smooth %K).
2. Programmable settings for the MACD Periods (Fast, Slow, Smoothing)
3. Programmable thresholds for %K, to qualify a potential entry strategy.
4. Programmable thresholds for %D, to qualify a potential exit strategy.
5. Buttons to choose which components to use in the trading algorithm.
6. Choose the month and year to back test.
The trading algorithm:
1. When %K exceeds the upper/lower threshold and then hooks down/up, in the direction of the Moving Average (MA). This is the minimum entry qualification.
2. When %D exceeds the lower/upper threshold and angled in the direction of the trade, is the exit qualification.
3. Additional entry filters include the direction of MACD, Signal and %D. Also, the "cliff", being a long entry is a higher high or a short entry is a lower low.
4. Strategy can only go "Long" or "Short" depending on the selected setting.
5. By matching the settings in the "Cycles" indicator, you can (almost) see what the strategy is doing.
6. Be sure to select the "Recalculate" buttons, to recalculate on every new Tick, for best results.

Simple and efficient MACD crypto strategy with risk managementToday I am glad to bring you another great creation suited for crypto markets.
MARKET
Its a simple and efficient strategy, designed for crypto markets( btcusd , btcusdt and so on), and suited for for higher time charts : like 1hour, 4hours, 1 day and so on.
Preferably to use 1h time charts.
COMPONENTS
MACD with simple moving average
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
For entries we have :
We check the direction with MACD . Depending if its an uptrend and positive level on histogram of MACD we go long, otherwise we go short.
RISK MANAGEMENT
In this strategy we use a stop loss based on our equity. For this example I choosed a 2% risk .That means if our account has 100.000 eur, it will automatically close the trade if we lose 2.000.
We dont use a take profit level.
In this example also we use a 100.000 capital account, risking 5% on each trade, but since its underleveraged, we only use 5000 of that ammount on every trade. With leveraged it can be achieved better profits and of course at the same time we will encounter bigger losses.
The comission applied is 5$ and a slippage of 5 points aswell added.
For any questions or suggestions regarding the script , please let me know.
High/low crypto strategy with MACD/PSAR/ATR/EWaveToday I am glad to bring you another great creation of mine, this time suited for crypto markets.
MARKET
Its a high and low strategy, designed for crypto markets( btcusd , btcusdt and so on), and suited for for higher time charts : like 1hour, 4hours, 1 day and so on.
Preferably to use 1h time charts.
COMPONENTS
Higher high and lower low between different candle points
MACD with simple moving average
PSAR for uptrend and downtrend
Trenddirection made of a modified moving average and ATR
And lastly elliot wave oscillator to have an even better precision for entries and exits.
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
For entries we have : when the first condition is meet(we have a succession on higher high or lower lows), then we check the macd histogram level, then we pair that with psar for the direction of the trend, then we check the trend direction based on atr levels with MA applied on it and lastly to confirm the direction we check the level of elliot wave oscillator. If they are all on the same page we have a short or a long entry.
STATS
Its a low win percentage , we usually have between 10-20% win rate, but at the same time we use a 1:30 risk reward ratio .
By this we achieve an avg profit factor between 1.5- 2.5 between different currencies.
RISK MANAGEMENT
In this example, the stop loss is 0.5% of the price fluctuation ( 10.000 -> 9950 our sl), and tp is 15% (10.000 - > 11500).
In this example also we use a 100.000 capital account, risking 5% on each trade, but since its underleveraged, we only use 5000 of that ammount on every trade. With leveraged it can be achieved better profits and of course at the same time we will encounter bigger losses.
The comission applied is 5$ and a slippage of 5 points aswell added.
For any questions or suggestions regarding the script , please let me know.
MACD and EMA200 With SignalsThis is my first indicator. It PROVIDES BUY, SHORT, and FALSE Signals by taking the MACD and the 200EMA.
MACD Multiple Time Frames Weighted Momentum Score OscillatorThis script looks at the current momentum direction (up or down) for the 5 minute, 30 minute, 1 hour, 4 hour and daily and allows you to set scores of importance to these.
These scores are then added up to create an oscillator matching your preferences. Tune the indicator to match what you believe is the most important time frames that people use and score it accordingly. The values I put by default are just for demonstration.
For example, (and if you want to test to verify it's working), set the scores to 0 for everything except for the daily). Look at the daily macD by adding it as an indicator and set a score. Whenever the macD is trending up it will add the appropriate value to the score and likewise remove it when it's not.
Enjoy!
Ampleforth Rebase MACDThis script reveals Ampleforth rebase levels which are going to always work. In addition to that is MACD crossovers serving as potential buy/sell entries. You can set alerts for MACD crossovers and price entering balanced value area (0.96 - 1.06).
MACD signals can be used to automatically open a position and entering a balanced value area can be used as take-profit. Since the price will always move to this level, using this strategy without leverage should be profitable.
Ampleforth seems like a nice asset to trade since it is unlikely to correlate with anything else. At least not when it gets to the extreme levels.
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
Full strategy AllinOne with risk management MACD RSI PSAR ATR MAHey, I am glad to present you one of the strategies where I put a lot of time in it.
This strategy can be adapted to all type of timecharts like scalping, daytrading or swing.
The context is the next one :
First we have the ATR to calculate our TP/SL points. At the same time we have another rule once we enter(we enter based on % risk from total equity, in this example 1%, at the same time, lowest ammount for this example is 0.1 lots, but can be modified to 0.01), so we can exit both by tp/sl points, or by losing 1% of our equity or winning 1% of our total equity. It's dinamic.
The strategy is made from
Trend direction :
PSAR
First confirmation point :
Crossover between 10EMA and Bollinger bands middle point
Second confirmation
MACD histogram
Third confirmation
RSI overbought/oversold levels
For entries : we check trend with psar, then once ema cross bb middle point, we confirm together with rsi level for overbought/oversold and macd histogram ( > 0 or <0).
We exit, when we have opposite sign, like from buy to sell or sell to buy, or when we reach tp/sl points, or when we reach % basaed equity points.
It can be changed to be fixed lots, or fixed tp/sl , you just have to uncomment the size from entries, and tp/sl lines.
At the same time, it has the possibility if one desires, to trade only concrete forex session like european, asian and so on for intraday trading.
Hope you enjoy it.
Let me know how it goes.
MACD-X, More Than MACD by DGTMoving Average Convergence Divergence – MACD
The most popular indicator used in technical analysis, the moving average convergence divergence (MACD), created by Gerald Appel. MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator, designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a financial instrument’s price
Historical evolution of MACD,
- Gerald Appel created the MACD line,
- Thomas Aspray added the histogram feature to MACD
- Giorgos E. Siligardos created a leader of MACD
MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, MACD takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
Mathematically expressed as;
macd = ma(source, fast_length) – ma(source, slow_length)
signal = ma(macd, signal_length)
histogram = macd – signal
where exponential moving average (ema) is in common use as a moving average (ma)
fast_length = 12
slow_length = 26
signal_length = 9
The MACD indicator is typically good for identifying three types of basic signals ;
Signal Line Crossovers
A Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the MACD. On the occasions where the MACD Line crosses above or below the Signal Line, that can signify a potentially strong move. The standard interpretation of such an event is a recommendation to buy if the MACD line crosses up through the Signal Line (a "bullish" crossover), or to sell if it crosses down through the Signal Line (a "bearish" crossover). These events are taken as indications that the trend in the financial instrument is about to accelerate in the direction of the crossover.
Zero Line Crossovers
Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crossed the Zero Line and either becomes positive (above 0) or negative (below 0). A change from positive to negative MACD is interpreted as "bearish", and from negative to positive as "bullish". Zero crossovers provide evidence of a change in the direction of a trend but less confirmation of its momentum than a signal line crossover
Divergence
Divergence is another signal created by the MACD. Simply, divergence occurs when the MACD and actual price are not in agreement. A "positive divergence" or "bullish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new low but the MACD does not confirm with a new low of its own. A "negative divergence" or "bearish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new high but the MACD does not confirm with a new high of its own. A divergence with respect to price may occur on the MACD line and/or the MACD Histogram
Moving Average Crossovers , another hidden signal that MACD Indicator identifies
Many traders will watch for a short-term moving average to cross above a longer-term moving average and use this to signal increasing upward momentum. This bullish crossover suggests that the price has recently been rising at a faster rate than it has in the past, so it is a common technical buy sign. Conversely, a short-term moving average crossing below a longer-term average is used to illustrate that the asset's price has been moving downward at a faster rate and that it may be a good time to sell.
Moving Average Crossovers in reality is Zero Line Crossovers, the value of the MACD indicator is equal to zero each time the two moving averages cross over each other. For easy interpretation by trades, Zero Line Crossovers are simply described as positive or negative MACD
False signals
Like any forecasting algorithm, the MACD can generate false signals. A false positive, for example, would be a bullish crossover followed by a sudden decline in a financial instrument. A false negative would be a situation where there is bearish crossover, yet the financial instrument accelerated suddenly upwards
What is “MACD-X” and Why it is “More Than MACD”
In its simples form, MACD-X implements variety of different calculation techniques applied to obtain MACD Line, ability to use of variety of different sources , including Volume related sources, and can be plotted along with MACD in the same window and all those features are available and presented within a single indicator, MACD-X
Different calculation techniques lead to different values for MACD Line, as will further discuss below, and as a consequence the signal line and the histogram values will differentiate accordingly. Mathematical calculation of both signal line and the histogram remain the same.
Main features of MACD-X ;
1- Introduces different proven techniques applied on MACD calculation , such as MACD-Histogram, MACD-Leader and MACD-Source, besides the traditional MACD (MACD-TRADITIONAL)
• MACD-Traditional , by Gerald Appel
It is the MACD that we know, stated as traditional just to avoid confusion with other techniques used with this study
• MACD-Histogram , by Thomas Aspray
The MACD-Histogram measures the distance between MACD and its signal line (the 9-day EMA of MACD). Aspray developed the MACD-Histogram to anticipate signal line crossovers in MACD. Because MACD uses moving averages and moving averages lag price, signal line crossovers can come late and affect the reward-to-risk ratio of a trade. Bullish or bearish divergences in the MACD-Histogram can alert chartists to an imminent signal line crossover in MACD
The MACD-Histogram represents the difference between MACD and its 9-day EMA, the signal line. Mathematically,
macdx = macd - ma(macd, signal_length)
Aspray's contribution served as a way to anticipate (and therefore cut down on lag) possible MACD crossovers which are a fundamental part of the indicator.
Here come a question, what if repeat the same calculations once more (macdh2 = macdh - ma(macdh, signal_length), will it be even better, this question will remain to be tested
• MACD-Leader , by Giorgos E. Siligardos, PhD
MACD Leader has the ability to lead MACD at critical situations. Almost all smoothing methods encounter in technical analysis are based on a relative-weighted sum of past prices, and the Leader is no exception. The concealed weights of MACD Leader are such that more relative weight is used in the more recent prices than the respective weights used by the components of MACD. In effect, the Leader expresses more changes in average price dynamics for the recent price movement than MACD, thus eventually leading MACD, especially when significant trend changes are about to take place.
Siligardos creates two less-laggard moving averages indicators in its formula using the same periods as follows
Indicator1 = ma(source, fast_length) + ma(source - ma(source, fast_length), fast_length)
Indicator2 = ma(source, slow_length) + ma(source - ma(source, slow_length), slow_length)
and then take the difference:
Indicator1 - Indicator2
The result is a new MACD Leader indicator
macdx = macd + ma(source - fast_ma, fast_length) - ma(source - slow_ma, slow_length)
• MACD-Source , a custom experimental interpretation of mine ,
MACD Source, presents an application of MACD that evaluates Source/MA Ratio, relatively with less lag, as a basis for MACD Line, also can be expressed as source convergence/divergence to its moving average. Among the various techniques for removing the lag between price and moving average (MA) of the price, one in particular stands out: the addition to the moving average of a portion of the difference between the price and MA. MACD Source, is based on signal length mean of the difference between Source and average value of shot length and long length moving average of the source (Source/MA Ratio), where the source is actual value and hence no lag and relatively less lag with the average value of moving average of the source . Mathematically expressed as,
macdx = ma(source - avg( ma(source, fast_length), ma(source, slow_length) ), signal_length)
MACD Source provides relatively early crossovers comparing to MACD and better momentum direction indications, assuming the lengths are set to same values
For further details, you are invited to check the following two studies, where the first seeds were sown of the MACD-Source idea
Price Distance to its Moving Averages study, adapts the idea of “Prices high above the moving average (MA) or low below it are likely to be remedied in the future by a reverse price movement", presented in an article by Denis Alajbeg, Zoran Bubas and Dina Vasic published in International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management
First MACD like interpretation comes with the second study named as “ P-MACD ”, where P stands for price, P-MACD study attempts to display relationship between Price and its 20 and 200-period moving average. Calculations with P-MACD were based on price distance (convergence/divergence) to its 200-period moving average, and moving average convergence/divergence of 20-period moving average to 200-period moving average of price.
Now as explained above, MACD Source is a one adapted with traditional MACD, where Source stands for Price, Volume Indicator etc, any source applicable with MACD concept
2- Allows usage of variety of different sources, including Volume related indicators
The most common usage of Source for MACD calculation is close value of the financial instruments price. As an experimental approach, this study will allow source to be selected as one of the following series;
• Current Close Price (close)
• Average of High, Low, and Close Price (hlc3)
• On Balance Volume (obv)
• Accumulation Distribution (accdist)
• Price Volume Trend (pvt)
Where,
-Current Close Price and Average of High, Low, and Close Price are price actions of the financial instrument
- Accumulation Distribution is a volume based indicator designed to measure underlying supply and demand
- On Balance Volume (OBV) , is a momentum indicator that measures positive and negative volume flow
- Price Volume Trend (PVT) is a momentum based indicator used to measure money flow
3- Can be plotted along with MACD in the same window using the same scaling
Default setting of MACD-X will display MACD-Source with Current Close Price as a source and traditional MACD can be plotted eighter as a companion of MACD-X or can be selected to be plotted alone.
Applying both will add ability to compare, or use as a confirmation of one other
In case, traditional MACD Is plotted along with MACD-X to avoid misinterpreting, the lines plotted, the area between MACD-X Line and Signal-X Line is highlighted automatically, even if the highlight option not selected. Otherwise highlight will be applied only if that option selected
4- 4C Histogram
Histogram is plotted with four colors to emphasize the momentum and direction
5- Customizable
Additional to ability of selecting Calculation Method, Source, plotting along with MACD, there are few other option that allows users to customize the MACD-X indicator
Lengths are configurable, default values are set as 12, 26, 9 respectively for fast, slow and smoothing length. Setting lengths to 8,21,5 respectively Is worth checking, slower length moving averages will lead to less lag and earlier reaction to price actions but yet requires a caution and back testing before applying
Highlight the area between MACD-X Line and Signal-X Line, with colors emphasising the direction
Label can be added to display Calculation Method, Source and Length settings, the aim of this label is to server only as a reminder to trades to be aware of settings while they are occupied with charts, analysis etc.
Here comes another question, which is of more importance having the reminder or having the indicators with multi timeframe feature? Build-in Multi Time Frame features of Pine is not supported when labels and lines introduced in the script, there are other methods but brings complexity. To be studied further, this version will be with labels for time being.
Epilogue
MACD-X is an alternative variant of MACD, the insight/signals provided by MACD are also applicable to MACD-X with early and clear warnings for the changes in the trend.
If MACD is essential to your analysis, then it is my guess that after using the MACD-X for a while and familiarizing yourself with its unique character and personality, you will make it an inseparable companion to other indicators in your charts.
The various signals generated by MACD/MACD-X are easily interpreted and very few indicators in technical analysis have proved to be more reliable than the MACD, and this relatively simple indicator can quickly be incorporated into any short-term trading strategy

MACD+ Strategy [SystemAlpha]This is a strategy based on MACD Oscillator . Instead of using just the normal crossovers, we use trend filters, trailing stop loss and take profit targets. This strategy was developed for crypto, forex and stocks on daily timeframe but feel free to experiment on 15 minutes or higher using heikin ashi or normal candles
In this strategy you have a choice of:
Trend Filters:
- Average Directional Index ( ADX ) – buy when price is trend is up and sell when trend is down.
- Moving Average (MA) – buy when price close above the defined moving average and sell when price close below moving average
- Parabolic SAR – buy when SAR is above price is above price and sell when SAR is below price.
- All - Use ADX , MA and SAR as filters
For MA Filter , you can use the “TF MA Type” and "TF MA Period" parameter to select Simple or Exponential Moving Average and length.
Stop Loss:
- Average True Range (ATR) – ATR % stop as trailing stop loss.
- Parabolic SAR ( SAR ) – Parabolic SAR adapted as trailing stop loss.
For ATR , you can use the “ATR Trailing Stop Multiplier” parameter to set an initial offset for trailing stop loss.
Take Profit Target:
- Average True Range (ATR) – ATR % stop as trailing stop loss.
- Standard % – Percent as target profit
For ATR , you can use the “ATR Take Profit Multiplier” parameter to set an initial offset for trailing stop loss.
Additional feature include:
- Regular and Hidden Divergence display and alerts
STRATEGY ONLY:
- Set back test date range
- Set trade direction - Long, Short or Both
- Use timed exit - Select method and bars
- Method 1: Exit after specified number of bars.
- Method 2: Exit after specified number of bars, ONLY if position is currently profitable.
- Method 3: Exit after specified number of bars, ONLY if position is currently losing.

[SCL] MACD DoubleCrossCounts crosses of the MACD and signal lines and derives entry signals. The code for counting the crosses, for deciding what counts as "close enough", and for auto-adjusting for resolutions 1D or longer, might be useful for Pinescripters. The entries and exits themselves are not intended to be used on their own, but could be used as confluence within a trading system. Full explanation is in the script introduction.
MACD VWAP IndicatorThis indicator uses a combination of the VWAP, EMA 9 and parts of the MACD in order to detect a bullish or bearish trend.
How to trade it:
Set SL either below or above the VWAP line (orange) and TP to 1:1.5 ratio (depending on last few candles, of course).
If EMA200 is close by then place SL either below or above EMA200 (blue) and TP to 1:1.5 ratio
Important:
Best traded in 15M, 30M => Intraday.
Have fun! :)
MACD Crossover Trend IndicatorThis is a very simple " the trend is your friend " indicator - if you are consistent!
How 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 price is above the EMA200, the MACD is below 0 and crosses up the signal line, then this is a BUY signal!
DOWN-TREND: If the price is below the EMA200, MACD is above 0 and crosses down the signal line, then this is a SELL signal!
You can also add an alert, that keeps you informed, once one of these scenario happens for a certain pair!
With this indicator you will never enter against the trend.
Have fun! :)
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! :)

KINSKI Flexible MACDFlexible MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence) Indicator
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence consists of three elements: two moving averages (the MACD line and the signal line) and a histogram. The blue MACD line is the difference between a longer and a shorter EMA (here 13 and 21 periods preset), the red signal line is an SMA (here 8 preset) on the MACD line. The histogram (green: ascending, red: descending) shows the difference between both lines.
As soon as the blue MACD line crosses the red signal line, circles are generated that indicate an up/down trend. If the red signal line is greater than or equal to the blue MACD line, this indicates a downward trend (red circle). If the blue MACD line is greater than or equal to the red signal line, this indicates an upward trend (green circle).
The special thing about this MACD indicator is the many setting options, especially the definition of the MA variants for MACD (Fast, Slow) and signal. You can define the following MA types: "COVWMA", "DEMA", "EMA", "EHMA", "FRAMA", "HMA", "KAMA", "RMA", "SMA", "SMMA", "VIDYA", "VWMA", "WMA".
You also have the following display options:
- "Up/Down Movements: On/Off" - Shows ascending and descending MACD, signal lines
- "Up/Down Movements: Rising Length" - Defines the length from which ascending or descending lines are detected
- "Bands: On/Off" - Fills the space between MACD and signal lines with colors to indicate up or down trends
- "Bands: Transparency" - sets the transparency of the fill color
