MACD divergence with line drawing by RexioAnother appoach to finding divergences at MACD. This time I think it is much smoother so I could check for divergences between two "peaks" at MACD.
I added my SL line which is last peak +- 1xATR. And the second line is peak between two points of divergence and most of the time it acts like an SR line.
If the higher timeframe trend backs up our divergence (for example: higher trend UP - divergence for L position) I can try to jump in after crossing EMA10.
This indicator is only sugestion for me. I always check price action, trend, SR line before I take any action.
Every people who will test this indicator need to know basics about divergences as THISE ARE NOT BUY/SELL SIGNALS.
If you want to help me and support my coding please contact me via private msg.

MACD Divergence +This study plots MACD Divergences and has the option of plotting a Top Dog Trading - MOM and DAD Version of the MACD
MACD Histogram and outline change color when increasing or decreasing above or below the zero-line,
Background also changes color according to MACD Line cross of Signal Line and 0 line or The Direction of DAD
Plenty of Alerts so that you dont have to stare at the screen all day
QuantNomad - EVWMA MACD StrategyPretty simple EVWMA (Elastic Volume Weighted Moving Average ) MACD Strategy.
EVWMA is a quite interesting moving average where the period of the MA is defined from the volume itself.
It incorporates volume information in a natural and logical way. The EVWMA can be looked at as an approximation to the average price paid per share.
As a volume period, you can use sum of the last x bars volumes.
Here are other EVWMA indicators/strategies:

Presets Selector - FRIDAY NIGHT CHALLENGEBonjour/Salut ça va?
Ok enough for the french :) You guys should really stop challenging me on things on Pinescript and asking me if it's possible or not because... that's the second time in a row I'm about to reveal a nice trick
Please take this example as a proof of concept/feasability. This follower said "I'm tired of manually filling the fields of my indicator, my fingers are dead.... every time I change something in the code, I lose the configuration by default"
Say no more sir.... challenge accep..... wait for it ....ted (that's his real name actually) !!!!
Mesdames et messieurs (damn... my french accent is back), let's unveil the curtain on... the PRESETS SELECTOR (please try to imagine someone super famous shouting it and everyone standing and clapping their hands...)
What I mean by presets is THIS
I inspired myself from this script MacD-Custom-Indicator-Multiple-Time-Frame-All-Available-Options/ (this guy has more likes in a single indicator than me and my friends and my family in all social media channels combined over the past 15 years or so....#humbled)
Anywoo.... the concept is that you can define presets in your script .... which is not possible by TradingView at the moment. If you always have the same set of parameters for a given indicator, please think about your fingers too and give them some rest by implementing a preset in the code directly
I also added a few features :
- You can choose the resolution of the indicator (from 1 minute to 1 month)
- You can choose also between displaying a MACD or a MACD ZERO LAG
Imagine now you have a super complex backtest with hundreds of fields... and unfortunately ... you'll have to fill some of them for each of your tests. Might change in the future if TradingView will add the feature though :)
PS
I'm writing the Algorithm Builder documentation this weekend and the website should open in 3 weeks maximum. I think it's one of the most beautiful trading websites I've seen ever (I didn't do it, my friend did but who cares... it's mine :p)
PS2
I didn't post yesterday the script of the day so I'll post it tomorrow. What is due is due and I won't fail my challenge even ONCE !!!! ("But you just did yesterday bro...")
Have a great weekend
Dave

MACD Profit CandlesThis tool is simple yet very effective. It creates new candles on the chart based on the MACD.
Candles are green when MACD is increasing and red when it is decreasing. All lengths can be adjusted in the input menu and there is an option to plot the signal line.
The rules for using it are pretty simple:
1.Buy on Green
2.Sell on red
~Happy Trading~
MACD Price Divergence indicatorIndicator for divergence between MACD trend and price trends. Try it out and let me know what you think!
MACD Histogram/AreaIt´s just the histogram of the MACD. (Actually it´s not a histogram, I like the Area visualisation more. But you can switch.)
When I´m using the MACD, I´m just searching for a divergence between Price and the MACD-histogram. I´m not interested in the MACD-signalline or the MACD-line in any way. As you can see, The omission of them leads to better visualisation. It´s much easier to spot a divergence. On the one hand because that way the histogram scales bigger, on the other hand becauce the lines can´t overdraw the histogram.
Rules bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, oscillator makes higher low.
Rules bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, oscillator makes lower high.
MACD, backtest 2015+ only, cut in half and doubledThis is only a slight modification to the existing "MACD Strategy" strategy plugin!
found the default MACD strategy to be lacking, although impressive for its simplicity. I added "year>2014" to the IF buy/sell conditions so it will only backtest from 2015 and beyond ** .
I also had a problem with the standard MACD trading late, per se. To that end I modified the inputs for fast/slow/signal to double. Example: my defaults are 10, 21, 10 so I put 20, 42, 20 in. This has the effect of making a 30min interval the same as 1 hour at 10,21,10. So if you want to backtest at 4hr, you would set your time interval to 2hr on the main chart. This is a handy way to make shorter time periods more useful even regardless of strategy/testing, since you can view 15min with alot less noise but a better response.
Used on BTCCNY OKcoin, with the chart set at 45 min (so really 90min in the strategy) this gave me a percent profitable of 42% and a profit factor of 1.998 on 189 trades.
Personally, I like to set the length/signals to 30,63,30. Meaning you need to triple the time, it allows for much better use of shorter time periods and the backtests are remarkably profitable. (i.e. 15min chart view = 45min on script, 30min= 1.5hr on script)
** If you want more specific time periods you need to try plugging in different bar values: replace "year" with "n" and "2014" with "5500". The bars are based on unix time I believe so you will need to play around with the number for n, with n being the numbers of bars.
