Median Convergence DivergenceIntroduction
The Median Convergence Divergence (MCD) is a derivative of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). The difference is the change in the use of the measure of central tendency. In MACD, moving average (mean) is used, whereas, in MCD, the median is used instead. The purpose of using the median is to eliminate the outlying values, which would be calculated for a moving average. The outliers would affect the value of the moving average.
For example: 3, 5, 7, 8, 5, 4, 2, 1, 6, 21, 8. The data set average is 6.3, whereas the median value is 5. There is a difference of about 23% in the example. The reason is the outlying value '21' in the data set.
As the markets are volatile, outlying values can always emerge. A moving average will consider those values; on the other hand, the median will ignore. If the strategy calls for a tool to ignore the outliers, the Median Convergence Divergence would be a great centered oscillator.
The default values have changed to suit the current trading days in a week. When the MACD was introduced, there would be six trading days in a week. Therefore, it used 12 (2 weeks), 26(4 weeks), and 9 ( 1.5 weeks). But now that there are five trading days per week. The default values are adapted to them. Feel free to change them as per your wish.
Recommended Settings
The current settings are set to be used for the Daily Time Frame: 5 day period for the fast line, a 20 day period for the slow line, and a 10 day period for the signal line. (5 days represent a trading week, 10 days is two weeks, and 20 days is 4 weeks or a month)
For the weekly charts, use 4 week period for the fast line, 13 week period for the slow line, and 8 week period for the signal line. (4 weeks represent a month, 8 weeks is two months, and 13 weeks is 3 months or quarterly)
And for monthly charts, use 3 month period for the fast line, 12 month period for the slow line, and 6 month period for the signal line. (3 months is quarterly, 6 months is bi-yearly, and 12 month is yearly)
It'll be challenging to measure for intraday since there are many different timeframes within intraday. The settings mentioned above should also be customized as per the requirements of the trading strategy.
Strategy
The strategy application is the same as the MACD, i.e., Signal Line Crossovers, Zero Line Crossovers, and Divergence.
Signal Line Crossovers: When the MCD line crosses above the Signal line, it's a bullish crossover. When the MCD line crosses below the Signal line, it's a bearish crossover.
Zero Line Crossovers: It's a bullish crossover when the MCD line crosses above the Zero line. When the MCD line crosses below the Zero Line, it's a bearish crossover.
Divergence: When price shows a lower low, but MCD shows a higher low, it's a bullish divergence. When the price shows a higher high but MCD shows a lower high, it's a bearish divergence.
Using other indicators in conjunction with the Median Convergence Divergence is recommended to take entry and exit signals.

255 EMA Strategy//--- From 15 Trading Examples by Trader Alyx ---
// Seems like this strategy works better if we reverse the EMA filter logic.
// "Description: This basic scalping strategy allows you to enter the market based upon sentiment
// provided by the EMA, set at 255 periods. When price is trading below the 255 EMA, you would
// look to enter a LONG BUY positions, and when price is trading above the 255 EMA, you would
// look to enter a SELL SHORT position. The MACD lagging indicator will show you clear signals for
// when to do this. When the MACD lines cross in a bullish manner and price is below the 255
// EMA, buy. When the MACD lines cross in a bearish manner and price is above the 255 EMA,
// sell.
// NOTE: Make sure that price is trading away from the 255EMA before entering a LONG or SHORT
// position. As you can see in the chart below, the clearest signs for trade entry were presented
// when price was trading AWAY from the 255EMA"
Easy Entry/Exit Trend Colors (With Alerts)This is an updated version of user Algokid's script called 'AK MACD BB INDICATOR V 1.00'. You can find that original script here:
I added many alerts along with the Bullish and Bearish alerts when the MACD crosses over the Upperband or crosses down on the Lowerband.
I personally use this indicator with Crypto charts (Bitcoin on a 15min, 1hour, and 4 hour timeframe) as one of many confirmations that it's a good time to enter a trade. This script was made to be easy to follow with the colors of GREEN triangles being a good uptrend or entry confirmation, and RED being a confirmation to sell/short or exit your trade.
It's important to use this indicator in combination with other indicators that can give you more confirmations to enter or exit a trade, and make sure you are on normal candles and not HA or any other candles as you can get wildly inaccurate results.
This script also has the Death & Golden crosses, which is the slow and fast moving averages crossing over each other. I don't use this as an additional confirmation, it's just nice to know where the cross happens.
MACD Trendprediction Strategy V1A trend following indicator based on the MACD and EMA. In this case, signals are not generated by crossing the signal lines as with the MACD, but as soon as the distance between the signal lines increases or decreases. A profit factor of 1.6-3.5 is achieved.

Multiple Screeners with AlertsI already published few version of my custom screeners. Unfortunately, because of TradingView's security function call limit you can't use more than 40 stocks in 1 screener.
Fortunately, you can compute multiple values in your function and screen few indicators at once.
In this script I show how you can compute 5 indicators at the same time for 40 instruments. I display then in different labels.
Every label consist of list of instruments satisfying current indicator conditions and a value for it. It can be absolute value as for RSI or -1/1 representing Bullish/Bearish event.
Also you can create 1 alert with result of all screeners inside.
In this example I took 5 indicators with following conditions:
RSI - "RSI < 30" or "RSI > 70"
TSI - "TSI < -30" or "RSI >30"
ADX - "ADX > 40"
MACD - "MACD Bullish Cross" or "MACD Bearish Cross" (1 and -1 in screener)
AO - "AO Crosses 0 UP" or "AO Crosses 0 DOWN" (1 and -1 in screener)
Params
- bars_apart - this parameter define how may bars apart you labels are on your chart. If you see labels overlapping, increase this number.
- Parameters for all used indicators
- 40 symbol inputs for instruments you want to use in this screener
Alerts
You can create an alert from it easily by selecting screener name from the list and then selecting "Any alert() function call".
No additional configuration is required, message and alert on close is generated in the code.
You should better change default name for your alert. Sometimes because of big amount of inputs you might receive an error.
Disclaimer
Please remember that past performance may not be indicative of future results.
Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, the strategy may no longer perform as good as in historical backtesting.

MACD StrategyThis script sends buy and sell signals as alerts to 3Commas (online software with trading bots in cryptocurreny)
It's based on 2 indicators:
- MACD
- 12 EMA and 26 EMA
When the 12 EMA and 26 EMA crossover, the MACD line crosses above 0. The goal here is to look for buy signals when the MACD and Signal are below 0, the histogram is positive, and there was or will be a 12 EMA and 26 EMA crossover.
I struggle with the following:
- There are multiple ways to use this as a crossover signal. I want to calculate the win rate of every posibility.
- What should be my take profit and my stoploss?
I think a 2:1 R/R,and a 60% win rate would make a great strategy! I could use some advice.
DMA: Moving Average of OscillatorTechnical Indicator Moving Average of Oscillator (Moving Average of Oscillator OsMA) is the difference between the oscillator and oscillator smoothing. In this case, an oscillator is used the basic MACD line and the smoothing of the signal.
Calculate:
OSMA = MACD - SIGNAL
MACD = EMA(CLOSE, 12) - EMA(CLOSE, 26)
SIGNAL = EMA(MACD, 9)
Trend Checker by Hally - IndicatorIt is an indicator that overlaps MACD and Stochastics.
It has both characteristics.
The trend changes when two lines intersect.
I think the reaction is bad in the range market.
Also, when there are Stochastics and MACD lines above the indicator, it is possible to think whether it is overbought while riding the trend, and it may be helpful for making decisions such as "maybe it will reverse soon". Hmm.
Also, I think it is better to use it in combination with other indicators.
This is my first pine script, and I couldn't find it even if I searched for the script with overlapping indicators of different scales, so I tried making it by trial and error.
I hope it helps somebody trying to do the same.
MACDとStochasticsを重ね合わせたインジケーターです。
それぞれの特徴を併せ持っています。
2本のラインが交差する時トレンドが変化します。
レンジ相場では反応が悪いと思います。
また、インジケーターの上の位置にStochasticsとMACDラインがあるときはトレンドに乗りながらも買われすぎかどうか考えられることが出来ますし、「そろそろ反転するかも」などの判断の助けになるかもしれません。
また、他の指標との併用して使うほうが良いと思います。

MACD Trend Squeezer V2This is a combination of a slightly sped up MACD overlay on top of a modified Bar Trend Squeeze or highly modified Momentum indicator. Helps to see the trend/momentum matched with the characteristics of the MACD and it's historiography. Very user friendly for adjusting color, transparency, depth, lines, size, etc.
MACD is the dark gray line.
Its signal slower line is orange.
Its historiography is the area fill blues and reds
Trend Squeezer / momentum are the Bars in the background.
// Changes from original version \\
Visual depth mostly. Most of the items are adjustable in the settings.
Increased user friendly inputs to adjust colors, lines, data, etc.
(darken / lighten and change background bar colors, increase/decrease line strengths and colors, adjust field data inputs)
MACD Zero lag impulse systemThis version of impulse uses the double exponential moving average instead of the typical ema.
The impulse system :
The Impulse System combines two simple but powerful indicators.
One measures market inertia, the other its momentum. When both
point in the same direction, they identify an impulse worth following.
We get an entry signal when both indicators get in gear.
The Impulse System uses an exponential moving average to find
uptrends and downtrends. When the EMA rises, it shows that inertia
favors the bulls. When EMA falls, inertia works for the bears. The sec-
ond component is MACD-Histogram, an oscillator whose slope reflects
changes of power among bulls or bears. When MACD-Histogram rises,
it shows that bulls are becoming stronger. When it falls, it shows that
bears are growing stronger.
The Impulse System flags those bars where both the inertia and the
momentum point in the same direction. When both the EMA and
MACD-Histogram rise, they show that bulls are roaring and the uptrend
is accelerating.
MACD + Stochastic + RSI (Long + Short)My strategy uses a combination of three indicators MACD Stochastic RSI .
The Idea is to GO LONG when ( MACD > Signal and RSI > 50 and Stochastic > 50) occures at the same time
and GO SHORT when ( MACD < Signal and RSI < 50 and Stochastic < 50)
This strategy works well on futures and stocks especially during market breaking up after consolidation
The best results are on Daily charts , so its NOT a scalping strategy. But it can work also on 1H charts.
The strategy does not have any stops and profit targets, so we can take all the market can give us at the moment.
The exit point only when MACD goes under/over Signal line
Its Preformance is quite stable.
So, use it, trade it.

MACD MAthis indicator is to be able to predict the movement of the macd, to determine when the macd may overextend and also provides great support and resistance levels, it's made out of 2 exponential moving averages one being 12 and the other 26, just like the moving averages used by the determine the macd a cross of the lines may indicate buy or sell signals
Normalized Moving Average Convergence/DivergenceThis MACD normalizes the price so that it can be compared against moves that took place at prices of significant difference.
There are also options to change if the MACD and the signal line are computed using EMA or SMA.
Oscillator Moving Average (OsMA)This code for Oscillator of Moving Averages (OsMA) is based on MACD 4C indicator code published by vkno422 . Many thanks to vkno422. I have borrowed the concept of 4 colours which I find very useful.
For those who are not familiar with OsMA, it is histogram of difference between MACD (oscillator) and its MA (signal line). The zero line cross over of this indicator is used in many strategies.
This version includes MACD & its signal line together with OsMA histogram. I have programmed flexibility for switching OFF/ON individual indicator components as well as changing the periods for various moving averages.
I am dedicating this indicator to the TV trading community hoping that people will find it useful.
