Scout Regiment - MACD

# Scout Regiment - MACD Indicator

## English Documentation

### Overview
Scout Regiment - MACD is an advanced implementation of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator with enhanced features including dual divergence detection (histogram and MACD line), customizable moving average types, multi-timeframe analysis, and sophisticated visual elements. This indicator provides traders with comprehensive momentum analysis and high-probability reversal signals.

### What is MACD?
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages:
- **MACD Line**: Difference between fast and slow EMAs
- **Signal Line**: Moving average of the MACD line
- **Histogram**: Difference between MACD line and signal line
- **Purpose**: Identifies trend direction, momentum strength, and potential reversals

### Key Features

#### 1. **Enhanced MACD Display**

**Three Core Components:**

**MACD Line** (Default: Blue/Orange, 2px)
- Fast EMA (13) minus Slow EMA (34)
- Shows momentum direction
- Color changes based on position relative to signal line:
- Blue: Above signal line (bullish)
- Orange: Below signal line (bearish)
- Can be toggled on/off

**Signal Line** (Default: White/Blue with transparency, 2px)
- EMA (9) of the MACD line
- Serves as trigger line for crossover signals
- Color varies based on settings
- Essential for identifying entry/exit points

**Histogram** (Default: 4-color gradient, 4px columns)
- Difference between MACD and signal line
- Visual representation of momentum strength
- Advanced 4-color scheme:
- **Dark Green (#26A69A)**: Positive and increasing (strong bullish)
- **Light Green (#B2DFDB)**: Positive but decreasing (weakening bullish)
- **Dark Red (#FF5252)**: Negative and decreasing (strong bearish)
- **Light Red (#FFCDD2)**: Negative but increasing (weakening bearish)
- Histogram tells the "story" of momentum changes

#### 2. **Customizable Moving Average Types**

**Oscillator MA Type** (MACD Line calculation):
- **EMA** (Exponential) - Default, more responsive
- **SMA** (Simple) - Smoother, less responsive

**Signal Line MA Type**:
- **EMA** (Exponential) - Default, faster signals
- **SMA** (Simple) - Slower, fewer false signals

**Flexibility**: Mix and match for different trading styles
- EMA/EMA: Most responsive (day trading)
- SMA/SMA: Smoothest (swing trading)
- EMA/SMA or SMA/EMA: Balanced approaches

#### 3. **Multi-Timeframe Capability**

**Current Chart Period** (Default: Enabled)
- Uses current timeframe automatically
- Simplest option for most traders

**Custom Timeframe Selection**
- Calculate MACD on any timeframe
- Display higher timeframe MACD on lower timeframe charts
- Example: View 1H MACD on 15min chart
- **Use Case**: Align lower timeframe trades with higher timeframe momentum

#### 4. **Visual Enhancement Features**

**Golden Cross / Death Cross Markers**
- Circles mark crossover points
- Color matches MACD line color
- Clearly identifies entry/exit signals
- Can be toggled on/off

**Zero Line** (White, 2px solid)
- Reference for positive/negative momentum
- Critical level for trend identification
- MACD above zero = Bullish bias
- MACD below zero = Bearish bias

**Color Transitions**
- MACD line changes color at signal line crosses
- Histogram shows momentum acceleration/deceleration
- Provides early warning of trend changes

#### 5. **Dual Divergence Detection System**

This indicator features TWO separate divergence detection systems:

**A. Histogram Divergence Detection**
- **Purpose**: Earlier divergence signals (most sensitive)
- **Detects**: Regular bullish and bearish divergences
- **Label**: "H涨" (Histogram Up), "H跌" (Histogram Down)
- **Special Feature**: Same-sign requirement option
- Top divergence: Both histogram points must be positive
- Bottom divergence: Both histogram points must be negative
- Filters out less reliable divergences

**B. MACD Line Divergence Detection**
- **Purpose**: Stronger, more reliable divergences
- **Detects**: Regular bullish and bearish divergences
- **Label**: "M涨" (MACD Up), "M跌" (MACD Down)
- **Use**: Confirmation of histogram divergences or standalone

**Divergence Types Explained:**

**Regular Bullish Divergence (Yellow)**
- **Price**: Lower lows
- **Indicator**: Higher lows (histogram OR MACD line)
- **Signal**: Potential upward reversal
- **Best**: Near support levels, oversold conditions
- **Entry**: After price breaks above recent resistance

**Regular Bearish Divergence (Blue)**
- **Price**: Higher highs
- **Indicator**: Lower highs (histogram OR MACD line)
- **Signal**: Potential downward reversal
- **Best**: Near resistance levels, overbought conditions
- **Entry**: After price breaks below recent support

- MACD above zero = Uptrend
- MACD below zero = Downtrend

3. **Watch for Crossovers**
- Golden cross (MACD crosses above signal) = Buy signal
- Death cross (MACD crosses below signal) = Sell signal

4. **Confirm with Histogram**
- Increasing histogram = Strengthening trend
- Decreasing histogram = Weakening trend

#### For Divergence Trading
1. **Enable Both Divergence Systems**
- Histogram divergence (early signals)
- MACD line divergence (confirmation)

2. **Wait for Divergence Signals**
- "H涨" or "H跌" = Early warning
- "M涨" or "M跌" = Confirmation

3. **Best Divergences**
- Both histogram AND MACD line showing divergence
- Divergence at key support/resistance levels
- Multiple divergences on same trend

4. **Entry Timing**
- Wait for price structure break
- Enter on pullback after confirmation
- Use MACD crossover as trigger

#### For Multi-Timeframe Analysis
1. **Set Higher Timeframe**
- Example: 4H MACD on 1H chart
- Uncheck "Use Current Chart Period"
- Select desired timeframe

2. **Identify Higher TF Trend**
- MACD position relative to zero
- MACD vs signal line relationship

3. **Trade with HTF Direction**
- Only take long signals if HTF MACD bullish
- Only take short signals if HTF MACD bearish

4. **Use Current TF for Entries**
- Higher TF for bias
- Current TF for precise timing

#### For Histogram Analysis
1. **Enable 4-Color Histogram**
- Watch color transitions
- Dark colors = Strong momentum

- Dark green → Light green = Bullish losing steam
- Light red → Dark red = Bearish gaining strength

3. **Trade Transitions**
- Light green to light red = Momentum shift (potential reversal)
- Entry on confirmation crossover

### Trading Strategies

#### Strategy 1: Classic MACD Crossover
**Setup:**
- Standard settings (13/34/9)
- Enable MACD, signal line, and cross markers
- Clear trend on higher timeframe

**Entry:**
- **Long**: Golden cross (circle marker) above zero line

**Best For:** Trend following, clear trending markets

#### Strategy 2: Zero Line Bounce
**Setup:**
- Enable all components
- Established trend (MACD staying one side of zero)
- Wait for pullback to zero line

**Entry:**
- **Long**: MACD touches zero from above, bounces up with golden cross
- **Short**: MACD touches zero from below, bounces down with death cross

**Confirmation:**
- Histogram color change
- Price at support/resistance

**Stop Loss:**
- Just beyond zero line (opposite side)

**Exit:**
- Target previous extreme
- Or opposite crossover

**Best For:** Trend continuation, strong markets

#### Strategy 3: Dual Divergence Confirmation
**Setup:**

### Indicator Combinations

**With Moving Averages (EMAs):**
- EMAs (21/55/144) show trend
- MACD shows momentum
- Enter when both align
- Exit when MACD turns first

**With RSI:**
- RSI for overbought/oversold
- MACD for momentum confirmation
- Divergence on both = Extremely strong signal
- RSI + MACD divergence = High probability trade

**With Volume:**
- Volume confirms MACD signals
- Crossover + volume spike = Valid breakout
- Divergence + volume divergence = Strong reversal

**With Support/Resistance:**
- S/R levels for entry/exit targets
- MACD divergence at levels = Highest probability
- MACD crossover at level = Strong confirmation

**With Bias Indicator:**
- Bias shows price deviation from EMA
- MACD shows momentum
- Both diverging = Powerful reversal signal
- Bias extreme + MACD divergence = High conviction trade

**With OBV:**
- OBV shows volume trend
- MACD shows price momentum
- OBV + MACD divergence = Volume not supporting price
- Strong reversal indication

**With KSI (RSI/CCI):**
- KSI for oscillator extremes
- MACD for momentum direction
- KSI extreme + MACD divergence = Reversal likely
- All aligned = Maximum confidence

### Common MACD Patterns

1. **Bullish Cross Above Zero**: Strong uptrend continuation signal
2. **Bearish Cross Below Zero**: Strong downtrend continuation signal
3. **Zero Line Rejection**: Price respects zero as support/resistance
4. **Histogram Peak**: Momentum climax, watch for reversal
5. **Double Divergence**: Two divergences without reversal = Very strong signal when it finally reverses
6. **Histogram Convergence**: Histogram narrowing = Trend losing steam
7. **Signal Line Hug**: MACD stays close to signal = Consolidation, expect breakout

### Performance Tips

- Start with default settings (13/34/9 EMA/EMA)
- Test one divergence system at a time
- Use same sign requirement initially
- Enable cross markers for clear signals
- Adjust lookback parameters per market volatility
- Higher timeframe MACD more reliable than lower
- Combine histogram early signal with MACD line confirmation
- Don't trade every divergence - wait for best setups

### Alert Conditions

While not explicitly coded, you can set custom alerts on:
- MACD crossing above/below signal line
- MACD crossing above/below zero line
- Histogram crossing zero
- When divergence labels appear (using visual alerts)

- **多头**：HTF MACD在零线上方 + 当前TF金叉
- **空头**：HTF MACD在零线下方 + 当前TF死叉

**确认：**
- HTF直方图支持方向
- 两个时间框架对齐

**止损：**
- 基于当前时间框架结构

**离场：**
- 当前TF相反交叉
- 或HTF MACD动量减弱

**适合：**波段交易、高概率设置

#### 策略6：仅直方图背离侦察
**设置：**
- 仅启用直方图背离
- 使用"同符号要求"
- 关注早期信号

**入场：**
- **多头**："H涨"标签 + 价格在支撑位
- **空头**："H跌"标签 + 价格在阻力位

**确认：**
- 等待MACD/信号线交叉
- 或价格结构突破

**优势：**
- 最早的背离信号
- 在大众之前进入

**风险：**
- 比MACD线背离假信号更多
- 需要严格确认

**止损：**
- 入场K线之外紧密止损

**离场：**
- 快速目标（预期波动的30-50%）
- 或移动止损

**适合：**活跃交易者、寻求早期入场的剥头皮交易者

### 最佳实践

#### MACD周期选择

**标准（13/34/9）** - 默认
- 大多数市场的平衡
- 适合日内交易和波段交易
- 广泛使用，符合一般市场心理

**更快（8/21/5或12/26/9）**
- 更灵敏
- 更多信号，更多噪音
- 最适合：剥头皮、波动市场
- 风险：更多假信号

**更慢（21/55/13）**
- 更平滑的信号
- 信号较少但更强
- 最适合：波段交易、仓位交易
- 优势：更高可靠性

#### 直方图vs MACD线背离

**直方图背离：**
- ✅ 更早信号
- ✅ 在其他人之前捕捉波动
- ❌ 更多假信号
- ❌ 需要确认
- **最适合**：活跃交易者、剥头皮交易者

**MACD线背离：**
- ✅ 更可靠
- ✅ 更强的背离
- ❌ 信号较晚
- ❌ 可能错过早期波动
- **最适合**：波段交易者、保守交易者

**两者结合：**
- ✅ 最大信心
- ✅ 直方图警报，MACD确认
- ✅ 最高概率设置
- **最适合**：所有寻求质量而非数量的交易者

#### 同符号要求功能

**启用（推荐）：**
- 过滤低质量背离
- 顶背离：两个直方图点都为正
- 底背离：两个直方图点都为负
- 产生更少但更可靠的信号

**禁用：**
- 更多背离信号
- 包括零线穿越背离
- 假信号率更高
- 仅适合有经验的交易者

#### 价格参考：影线vs实体

**影线（默认）：**
- 使用最高/最低价
- 捕捉所有极值
- 检测到更多背离
- 最适合：大多数交易风格

**实体：**
- 使用开盘/收盘价
- 过滤突刺波动
- 背离更少但更干净
- 最适合：噪音市场、加密货币

#### 视觉设置建议

**新手：**
- 启用：MACD线、信号线、直方图
- 启用：交叉标记
- 启用：直方图颜色
- 禁用：初始禁用两个背离系统
- 重点：先学习基本交叉

**中级：**
- 所有基本组件
- 添加：仅直方图背离
- 使用：同符号要求
- 重点：早期反转信号

**高级：**
- 所有组件
- 两个背离系统
- 每个市场自定义参数
- 多时间框架分析
- 重点：高概率汇合设置

### 指标组合

**与移动平均线（EMA）配合：**
- EMA（21/55/144）显示趋势
- MACD显示动量
- 两者一致时进入
- MACD先转向时退出

**与RSI配合：**
- RSI用于超买超卖
- MACD用于动量确认
- 两者都背离 = 极强信号
- RSI + MACD背离 = 高概率交易

**与成交量配合：**
- 成交量确认MACD信号
- 交叉 + 成交量激增 = 有效突破
- 背离 + 成交量背离 = 强反转

**与支撑/阻力配合：**
- 支撑阻力水平用于进出目标
- 水平处的MACD背离 = 最高概率
- 水平处的MACD交叉 = 强确认

**与Bias指标配合：**
- Bias显示价格相对EMA的偏离
- MACD显示动量
- 两者都背离 = 强大反转信号
- Bias极值 + MACD背离 = 高信念交易

**与OBV配合：**
- OBV显示成交量趋势
- MACD显示价格动量
- OBV + MACD背离 = 成交量不支持价格
- 强反转迹象

**与KSI（RSI/CCI）配合：**
- KSI用于振荡器极值
- MACD用于动量方向
- KSI极值 + MACD背离 = 可能反转
- 全部对齐 = 最大信心

### 常见MACD形态

1. **零线上方看涨交叉**：强上升趋势延续信号
2. **零线下方看跌交叉**：强下降趋势延续信号
3. **零线拒绝**：价格将零线作为支撑/阻力
4. **直方图峰值**：动量高潮，注意反转
5. **双重背离**：两次背离未反转 = 最终反转时非常强
6. **直方图收敛**：直方图变窄 = 趋势失去动力
7. **信号线紧贴**：MACD紧贴信号线 = 盘整，预期突破

### 性能提示

- 从默认设置开始（13/34/9 EMA/EMA）
- 一次测试一个背离系统
- 初始使用同符号要求
- 启用交叉标记以获得清晰信号
- 根据市场波动性调整回溯参数
- 更高时间框架MACD比更低的更可靠
- 结合直方图早期信号与MACD线确认
- 不要交易每个背离 - 等待最佳设置

### 警报条件

虽然没有明确编码，但您可以设置自定义警报：
- MACD向上/向下穿越信号线
- MACD向上/向下穿越零线
- 直方图穿越零线
- 背离标签出现时（使用视觉警报）
