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.
Moving Average Convergence / Divergence (MACD)
Schaff Trend Cycle (STC)The STC (Schaff Trend Cycle) indicator is a momentum oscillator that combines elements of MACD and stochastic indicators to identify market cycles and potential trend reversals.
Key features of the STC indicator:
Oscillates between 0 and 100, similar to a stochastic oscillator
Values above 75 generally indicate overbought conditions
Values below 25 generally indicate oversold conditions
Signal line crossovers (above 75 or below 25) can suggest potential entry/exit points
Faster and more responsive than traditional MACD
Designed to filter out market noise and identify cyclical trends
Traders typically use the STC indicator to:
Identify potential trend reversals
Confirm existing trends
Generate buy/sell signals when combined with other technical indicators
Filter out false signals in choppy market conditions
This STC implementation includes multiple smoothing options that act as filters:
None: Raw STC values without additional smoothing, which provides the most responsive but potentially noisier signals.
EMA Smoothing: Applies a 3-period Exponential Moving Average to reduce noise while maintaining reasonable responsiveness (default).
Sigmoid Smoothing: Transforms the STC values using a sigmoid (S-curve) function, creating more gradual transitions between signals and potentially reducing whipsaw trades.
Digital (Schmitt Trigger) Smoothing: Creates a binary output (0 or 100) with built-in hysteresis to prevent rapid switching.
The STC indicator uses dynamic color coding to visually represent momentum:
Green: When the STC value is above its 5-period EMA, indicating positive momentum
Red: When the STC value is below its 5-period EMA, indicating negative momentum
The neutral zone (25-75) is highlighted with a light gray fill to clearly distinguish between normal and extreme readings.
Alerts:
Bullish Signal Alert:
The STC has been falling
It bottoms below the 25 level
It begins to rise again
This pattern helps confirm potential uptrend starts with higher reliability.
Bearish Signal Alert:
The STC has been rising
It peaks above the 75 level
It begins to decline
This pattern helps identify potential downtrend starts.

Velowave Adaptive OscillatorThe indicator first sets up a series of user inputs including periods for fast and slow linear regression calculations, the period for the signal line, and parameters for ATR and volume. These inputs allow for defining how aggressively the oscillator reacts to market changes and determine the smoothing and scaling factors.
Adaptive Factor Calculation:
• The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated over a user-specified period.
• A volume moving average is computed, and the current volume is compared to this average to obtain a volume factor.
• Similarly, the current ATR is compared with its own moving average to derive an ATR factor.
• A combined factor is generated by taking a weighted average of the volume factor and the ATR factor.
• This combined factor is then bounded by minimum and maximum adaptive multipliers (both scaled by a boost factor) to produce the final adaptive factor.
Primary MACD-like Calculation:
• Instead of using exponential moving averages, the indicator uses two linear regressions (one fast and one slow) on the closing prices.
• The difference between the fast and slow linear regression values yields a primary MACD-like value.
Oscillator and Smoothing:
• The primary MACD value is multiplied by the adaptive factor to form the raw oscillator value.
• Two sequential smoothing operations (using a method selectable among SMA, EMA, or RMA) are applied to reduce noise and produce the final oscillator value.
• The signal line is derived by applying a linear regression on the oscillator value over a designated period.
Histogram Calculation and Dynamic Coloring:
• The histogram is computed as the (scaled) difference between the oscillator and its signal line.
• A second smoothing is applied to the histogram.
• The absolute magnitude of the histogram determines a transparency value, which is then used to color the histogram dynamically (using one color for positive values and another for negative ones).
Plotting and Alerts:
• The oscillator, signal line, and histogram are plotted along with a constant zero line.
• The oscillator is colored based on its sign (e.g., one color when positive and another when negative).
• Alert conditions are included to trigger when the histogram crosses above or below zero, suggesting potential bullish or bearish signals.

RSI & MACD Exit IndicatorThis indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying potential exit points for long and short trades by combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).
Unlike traditional indicators that provide entry signals, this script is specifically optimized for exit strategies, helping traders manage their positions efficiently.
How It Works
The script identifies potential exit points based on the following conditions:
🔴 Exit Long:
- RSI crosses above the user-defined overbought threshold (default: 65).
- MACD crosses below the signal line (bearish crossover).
🟢 Exit Short:
- RSI crosses below the user-defined oversold threshold (default: 35).
- MACD crosses above the signal line (bullish crossover).
When these conditions align, a label appears on the price chart indicating an exit point.
Key Features
- Customizable RSI & MACD Settings – Adjust lengths and thresholds to suit your strategy.
- ATR-Based Adjustments – The script incorporates an ATR multiplier for dynamic signal adjustments based on market volatility.
- Clear Visual Labels – Exit points are clearly marked on price candles.
- Color-Coded Background – Highlights buy/sell zones for quick identification.
- Alerts for Exit Signals – Receive notifications when exit conditions are met.
- Clean Chart Design – The MACD plots are placed below the main chart to avoid clutter.
How to Use
⚠ This indicator is for exits only and does not generate buy/sell entry signals.
For long trades: When an Exit Long signal appears, traders may consider closing or reducing their long positions.
For short trades: When an Exit Short signal appears, traders may consider closing or reducing their short positions.
ATR Settings: Users can adjust the ATR multiplier to fine-tune the signal frequency based on market conditions.

[F.B]_ZLEMA MACD ZLEMA MACD – A Zero-Lag Variant of the Classic MACD
Introduction & Motivation
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is a standard indicator for measuring trend strength and momentum. However, it suffers from the latency of traditional Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).
This variant replaces EMAs with Zero Lag Exponential Moving Averages (ZLEMA), reducing delay and increasing the indicator’s responsiveness. This can potentially lead to earlier trend change detection, especially in highly volatile markets.
Calculation Methodology
2.1 Zero-Lag Exponential Moving Average (ZLEMA)
The classic EMA formula is extended with a correction factor:
ZLEMA_t = EMA(2 * P_t - EMA(P_t, L), L)
where:
P_t is the closing price,
L is the smoothing period length.
2.2 MACD Calculation Using ZLEMA
MACD_t = ZLEMA_short,t - ZLEMA_long,t
with standard parameters of 12 and 26 periods.
2.3 Signal Line with Adaptive Methodology
The signal line can be calculated using ZLEMA, EMA, or SMA:
Signal_t = f(MACD, S)
where f is the chosen smoothing function and S is the period length.
2.4 Histogram as a Measure of Momentum Changes
Histogram_t = MACD_t - Signal_t
An increasing histogram indicates a relative acceleration in trend strength.
Potential Applications in Data Analysis
Since the indicator is based solely on price time series, its effectiveness as a standalone trading signal is limited. However, in quantitative models, it can be used as a feature for trend quantification or for filtering market phases with strong trend dynamics.
Potential use cases include:
Trend Classification: Segmenting market phases into "trend" vs. "mean reversion."
Momentum Regime Identification: Analyzing histogram dynamics to detect increasing or decreasing trend strength.
Signal Smoothing: An alternative to classic EMA smoothing in more complex multi-factor models.
Important: Using this as a standalone trading indicator without additional confirmation mechanisms is not recommended, as it does not demonstrate statistical superiority over other momentum indicators.
Evaluation & Limitations
✅ Advantages:
Reduced lag compared to the classic MACD.
Customizable signal line smoothing for different applications.
Easy integration into existing analytical pipelines.
⚠️ Limitations:
Not a standalone trading system: Like any moving average, this indicator is susceptible to noise and false signals in sideways markets.
Parameter sensitivity: Small changes in period lengths can lead to significant signal deviations, requiring robust optimization.
Conclusion
The ZLEMA MACD is a variant of the classic MACD with reduced latency, making it particularly useful for analytical purposes where faster adaptation to price movements is required.
Its application in trading strategies should be limited to multi-factor models with rigorous evaluation. Backtests and out-of-sample analyses are essential to avoid overfitting to past market data.

Moving Average Convergence Divergence with Enhanced Cross Alerts
Overview of Features and Settings
- Customizable Parameters:
- Fast and Slow Periods: Users can set the duration for both the fast (default 12) and slow (default 26) moving averages.
- Source Selection: The indicator uses the closing price (close) by default, though this can be modified to any other data source.
- Signal Smoothing: The smoothing period for the signal line is adjustable (default 9), and you can choose whether to use SMA or EMA for both the oscillator and the signal line calculations.
Calculation Logic
1. Calculation of Moving Averages:
- The fast and slow moving averages are computed based on the chosen moving average type (SMA or EMA) over the specified periods.
- The MACD line is then determined as the difference between these two moving averages.
2. Signal Line and Histogram:
- Signal Line: Created by smoothing the MACD line, with the option to choose between SMA and EMA.
- Histogram: Represents the difference between the MACD line and the signal line, visually indicating the divergence between the two.
Detection of Cross Events
The script identifies two specific cross events with additional filtering conditions:
- Bullish Cross:
- The MACD line **crosses above** the signal line.
- The previous value of the histogram is negative, and both the MACD and the signal line are below zero.
- This condition suggests that a cross occurring in the negative territory might indicate a potential upward trend reversal.
- **Bearish Cross:**
- The MACD line **crosses below** the signal line.
- The previous value of the histogram is positive, and both the MACD and the signal line are above zero.
- This condition indicates that a cross in the positive territory may signal a potential downward trend reversal.
For each event, there are dedicated alert conditions defined that trigger notifications when the criteria are met.
Visualization
- Displayed Elements:
- Histogram: Rendered as a column chart with colors that change based on the rate of change. For instance, a rising positive histogram uses a stronger green, whereas a declining positive histogram uses a lighter shade.
- MACD and Signal Lines: Displayed as separate lines with distinct colors to differentiate them.
- Zero Line: A horizontal line is drawn to help visually pinpoint the zero level.
- Crossing Signals:
- Optional markers in the form of arrows appear on the chart:
- **Bullish Cross: A green, upward-pointing triangle at the bottom.
- **Bearish Cross: A red, downward-pointing triangle at the top.
Summary
This indicator not only incorporates the traditional MACD components but also offers the following additional benefits:
- **Enhanced Accuracy:** Extra conditions (such as checking the previous histogram value and the position of the lines relative to zero) improve the identification of significant cross events.
- **Customization:** Users can personalize the moving average types and periods, making the indicator adaptable to different trading strategies.
- **Visual Assistance:** The combination of histogram columns, lines, and markers helps quickly pinpoint potential trend reversals, thereby aiding trading decisions.
This comprehensive description is intended to clearly demonstrate to users how the indicator works, outlining its calculations, filtering conditions, and its role in identifying cross events within technical analysis.
MACD Sniper [trade_lexx]📈 MACD Sniper — Improve your trading strategy with accurate signals!
Introducing the MACD Sniper , an advanced trading indicator designed for a comprehensive analysis of market conditions. This indicator combines MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) with various types of moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, KAMA, HMA, ZLEMA, TEMA, ALMA, DEMA), providing traders with a powerful tool for generating buy and sell signals. It is ideal for traders who need an advantage in detecting changes in trends and market conditions.
🔍 How the signals work
1. Histogram signals:
— A buy signal is generated when the MACD histogram is below zero and begins to grow after the minimum number of falling histogram columns, which are indicated in the indicator menu. This indicates that selling pressure has decreased, the market is oversold and ready for a rebound. The signals are displayed as green triangles labeled "H" under the histogram graph. On the main chart, buy signals are displayed as green triangles labeled "Buy" under candlesticks.
— A sell signal is generated when the MACD histogram is above zero and begins to fall after the minimum number of growing histogram columns, which are indicated in the indicator menu. This indicates that the buying pressure has decreased, the market is overbought and ready for correction. The signals are displayed as red triangles labeled "H" above the histogram graph. On the main chart, the sell signals are displayed as red triangles with the word "Sell" above the candlesticks.
2. Moving Average Crossing Signals (MA):
— A buy signal is generated when the Fast Moving Average (MACD) crosses the Slow Moving Average (Signal Line) from bottom to top. This indicates a possible upward reversal of the market. The signals are displayed as green triangles labeled "MA" under the MACD chart. On the main chart, buy signals are displayed as green triangles labeled "Buy" under candlesticks.
— A sell signal is generated when the Fast Moving Average (MACD) crosses the slow Moving Average (Signal Line) from top to bottom. This indicates a possible downward reversal of the market. The signals are displayed as red triangles labeled "MA" above the MACD chart. On the main chart, the sell signals are displayed as red triangles with the word "Sell" above the candlesticks.
🔧 Signal filtering
— Minimum number of bars between signals
This filter allows the user to set the minimum number of bars that must pass between the generation of two consecutive signals. This helps to avoid frequent false alarms and improves the quality of the generated signals. Setting this parameter allows you to filter out the noise in the market and make the signals more reliable. For example, if the value is set to 5, then a new signal will be generated only after 5 bars have passed since the previous signal.
— "Wait for the opposite signal" mode
In this mode, Buy and Sell signals are generated only after receiving the opposite signal. This means that a buy signal will be generated only after the previous sell signal, and vice versa. This approach adds an additional level of filtering and helps to avoid false positives. This is especially useful in conditions of high market volatility, when false signals often occur.
— RSI filter
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is used for additional filtering of buy and sell signals. The RSI helps determine whether a market is overbought or oversold. The user can set overbought and oversold levels, and signals will be generated only when the RSI is in the specified ranges. For example, a buy signal will be generated only if the RSI is in the range between 10 and 30 (oversold), and a sell signal if the RSI is in the range between 70 and 90 (overbought). This helps to avoid false signals in extreme market conditions.
🔌 Connector Histogram, MA, Combined 🔌
These parameters allow you to connect the indicator to trading strategies and test the signals throughout the trading history. This makes the indicator an even more powerful tool for traders who want to test the effectiveness of their strategies on historical data.
Connector Histogram provides the ability to connect signals based on the MACD histogram to trading strategies.
Connector MA allows you to connect signals based on the intersection of moving averages (MA) of the MACD, which can also be used for automatic trading or strategy testing.
The combined connector combines signals based on both a histogram and the intersection of moving averages, making the analysis more comprehensive and reliable, which is especially useful for traders seeking to improve the quality of their trading decisions.
🔔 Alerts
The indicator provides the ability to set up notifications for buy and sell signals, which allows traders to keep abreast of important market events without having to constantly monitor the chart. Users can set up notifications that will alert them when buy or sell signals appear, helping them respond to market changes in a timely manner and make informed decisions. These notifications can be configured for various types of signals, such as signals based on the MACD histogram, moving average crossings, or all at once, which makes the indicator a more convenient and functional tool for active traders.
🎨 Customizable Appearance
Customize the appearance of the MACD Sniper according to your preferences to make the analysis more convenient and visually pleasing. In the indicator settings section, you can change the colors of the buy and sell signals so that they stand out on the chart and are easily visible. For example, buy signals can be green, and sell signals can be red. These settings allow traders to adapt the indicator to their individual needs, making it more flexible and user-friendly.
🔧 How it works
The MACD Sniper indicator starts by calculating the MACD values and moving averages for a specific period in order to assess market conditions. For this, fast and slow moving averages are used, as well as a signal line, which are calculated based on the set parameters. The indicator then analyzes the MACD histogram to determine whether the difference between the fast and slow moving averages is rising or falling. Based on this analysis, buy and sell signals are generated. Additionally, the indicator uses the RSI filter to filter out false signals in overbought or oversold market conditions. The user can set the minimum number of bars between the signals and the "Wait for the opposite signal" mode for additional filtering. The indicator dynamically adjusts to changes in the market, providing relevant signals in real time.

MACD Crossover Strategy MACD Crossover Strategy:
This strategy is based on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator, a popular tool used in technical analysis to identify potential trend changes and momentum in price movements. The strategy focuses on MACD crossovers within a specific "important zone" to generate trading signals.
Key Components:
1. MACD Calculation: The strategy uses customizable parameters for fast length (default 12), slow length (default 26), and signal length (default 9) to calculate the MACD line and signal line.
2. Important Zone: Defined by upper and lower thresholds (default 0.5 and -0.5), this zone helps filter out potentially less significant crossovers.
3. Entry Conditions:
- Long (Buy) Entry: When the MACD line crosses above the signal line within the important zone.
- Short (Sell) Entry: When the MACD line crosses below the signal line within the important zone.
4. Exit Conditions: The strategy closes positions on opposite crossover signals. Long positions are closed on bearish crossovers, and short positions on bullish crossovers.
5. Visualization:
- MACD line (blue) and signal line (orange) are plotted.
- The zero line, upper threshold, and lower threshold are displayed for reference.
- Buy signals are represented by green triangles at the bottom of the chart.
- Sell signals are shown as red triangles at the top of the chart.
This strategy aims to capture trend changes while filtering out potentially false signals that occur when the MACD is at extreme values. By focusing on crossovers within the important zone, the strategy attempts to identify more reliable trading opportunities.
Traders can adjust the MACD parameters and the important zone thresholds to fine-tune the strategy for different assets or timeframes. As with any trading strategy, it's crucial to thoroughly backtest and consider risk management before using it in live trading.

Bar Color - Moving Average Convergence Divergence [nsen]The Pine Script you've provided creates a custom indicator that utilizes the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) and displays various outputs, such as bar color changes based on MACD signals, and a table of data from multiple timeframes. Here's a breakdown of how the script works:
1. Basic Settings (Input)
• The script defines several user-configurable parameters, such as the MACD values, bar colors, the length of the EMA (Exponential Moving Average) periods, and signal smoothing.
• Users can also choose timeframes to analyze the MACD values, like 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and 1 day.
2. MACD Calculation
• It uses the EMA of the close price to calculate the MACD value, with fast_length and slow_length representing the fast and slow periods. The signal_length is used to calculate the Signal Line.
• The MACD value is the difference between the fast and slow EMA, and the Signal Line is the EMA of the MACD.
• The Histogram is the difference between the MACD and the Signal Line.
3. Plotting the Histogram
• The Histogram values are plotted with colors that change based on the value. If the Histogram is positive (rising), it is colored differently than if it's negative (falling). The colors are determined by the user inputs, for example, green for bullish (positive) signals and red for bearish (negative) signals.
4. Bar Coloring
• The bar color changes based on the MACD's bullish or bearish signal. If the MACD is bullish (MACD > Signal), the bar color will change to the color defined for bullish signals, and if it's bearish (MACD < Signal), the bar color will change to the color defined for bearish signals.
5. Multi-Timeframe Data Table
• The script includes a table displaying the MACD trend for different timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1d).
• Each timeframe will show a colored indicator: green (🟩) for bullish and red (🟥) for bearish, with the background color changing based on the trend.
6. Alerts
• The script has alert conditions to notify the user when the MACD shows a bullish or bearish entry:
• Bullish Entry: When the MACD turns bullish (crosses above the Signal Line).
• Bearish Entry: When the MACD turns bearish (crosses below the Signal Line).
• Alerts are triggered with custom messages such as "🟩 MACD Bullish Entry" and "🟥 MACD Bearish Entry."
Key Features:
• Customizable Inputs: Users can adjust the MACD settings, histogram colors, and timeframe options.
• Visual Feedback: The color changes of the histogram and bars provide instant visual cues for bullish or bearish trends.
• Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The table shows the MACD trend across multiple timeframes, helping traders monitor trends in different timeframes.
• Alert Conditions: Alerts notify users when key MACD crossovers occur.
Ultimate Trading BotHow the "Ultimate Trading Bot" Works:
This Pine Script trading bot executes buy and sell trades based on a combination of technical indicators:
Indicators Used:
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Measures momentum and determines overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels.
A crossover above 30 suggests a potential buy, and a cross below 70 suggests a potential sell.
Moving Average (MA)
A simple moving average (SMA) of 50 periods to track the trend.
Prices above the MA indicate an uptrend, while prices below indicate a downtrend.
Stochastic Oscillator (%K and %D)
Identifies overbought and oversold conditions using a smoothed stochastic formula.
A crossover of %K above %D signals a buy, and a crossover below %D signals a sell.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
Uses a 12-period fast EMA and a 26-period slow EMA, with a 9-period signal line.
A crossover of MACD above the signal line suggests a bullish move, and a cross below suggests bearish movement.
Trade Execution:
Buy (Long Entry) Conditions:
RSI crosses above 30 (indicating recovery from an oversold state).
The closing price is above the 50-period moving average (showing an uptrend).
The MACD line crosses above the signal line (indicating upward momentum).
The Stochastic %K crosses above %D (indicating bullish momentum).
→ If all conditions are met, the bot enters a long (buy) position.
Sell (Exit Trade) Conditions:
RSI crosses below 70 (indicating overbought conditions).
The closing price is below the 50-period moving average (downtrend).
The MACD line crosses below the signal line (bearish signal).
The Stochastic %K crosses below %D (bearish momentum).
→ If all conditions are met, the bot closes the long position.
Visuals:
The bot plots the moving average, RSI, MACD, and Stochastic indicators for reference.
It also displays buy/sell signals with arrows:
Green arrow (Buy Signal) → When all buy conditions are met.
Red arrow (Sell Signal) → When all sell conditions are met.

Sniper TradingSniper Trader Indicator Overview
Sniper Trader is a comprehensive trading indicator designed to assist traders by providing valuable insights and alerting them to key market conditions. The indicator combines several technical analysis tools and provides customizable inputs for different strategies and needs.
Here’s a detailed breakdown of all the components and their functions in the Sniper Trader indicator:
1. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that helps determine the strength and direction of the current trend. It consists of two lines:
MACD Line (Blue): Calculated by subtracting the long-term EMA (Exponential Moving Average) from the short-term EMA.
Signal Line (Red): The EMA of the MACD line, typically set to 9 periods.
What does it do?
Buy Signal: When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, it generates a buy signal.
Sell Signal: When the MACD line crosses below the signal line, it generates a sell signal.
Zero Line Crossings: Alerts are triggered when the MACD line crosses above or below the zero line.
2. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
The RSI is a momentum oscillator used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in the market.
Overbought Level (Red): The level above which the market might be considered overbought, typically set to 70.
Oversold Level (Green): The level below which the market might be considered oversold, typically set to 30.
What does it do?
Overbought Signal: When the RSI crosses above the overbought level, it’s considered a signal that the asset may be overbought.
Oversold Signal: When the RSI crosses below the oversold level, it’s considered a signal that the asset may be oversold.
3. ATR (Average True Range)
The ATR is a volatility indicator that measures the degree of price movement over a specific period (14 bars in this case). It provides insights into how volatile the market is.
What does it do?
The ATR value is plotted on the chart and provides a reference for potential market volatility. It's used to detect flat zones, where the price may not be moving significantly, potentially indicating a lack of trends.
4. Support and Resistance Zones
The Support and Resistance Zones are drawn by identifying key swing highs and lows over a user-defined look-back period.
Support Zone (Green): Identifies areas where the price has previously bounced upwards.
Resistance Zone (Red): Identifies areas where the price has previously been rejected or reversed.
What does it do?
The indicator uses swing highs and lows to define support and resistance zones and highlights these areas on the chart. This helps traders identify potential price reversal points.
5. Alarm Time
The Alarm Time feature allows you to set a custom time for the indicator to trigger an alarm. The time is based on Eastern Time and can be adjusted directly in the inputs tab.
What does it do?
It triggers an alert at a user-defined time (for example, 4 PM Eastern Time), helping traders close positions or take specific actions at a set time.
6. Market Condition Display
The Market Condition Display shows whether the market is in a Bullish, Bearish, or Flat state based on the MACD line’s position relative to the signal line.
Bullish (Green): The market is in an uptrend.
Bearish (Red): The market is in a downtrend.
Flat (Yellow): The market is in a range or consolidation phase.
7. Table for Key Information
The indicator includes a customizable table that displays the current market condition (Bull, Bear, Flat). The table is placed at a user-defined location (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right), and the appearance of the table can be adjusted for text size and color.
8. Background Highlighting
Bullish Reversal: When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, the background is shaded green to highlight the potential for a trend reversal to the upside.
Bearish Reversal: When the MACD line crosses below the signal line, the background is shaded red to highlight the potential for a trend reversal to the downside.
Flat Zone: A flat zone is identified when volatility is low (ATR is below the average), and the background is shaded orange to signal periods of low market movement.
Key Features:
Customizable Time Inputs: Adjust the alarm time based on your local time zone.
User-Friendly Table: Easily view market conditions and adjust display settings.
Comprehensive Alerts: Receive alerts for MACD crossovers, RSI overbought/oversold conditions, flat zones, and the custom alarm time.

MACD+RSI Indicator Moving Average Convergence/Divergence or MACD is a momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of a stock price. Convergence happens when two moving averages move toward one another, while divergence occurs when the moving averages move away from each other. This indicator also helps traders to know whether the stock is being extensively bought or sold. Its ability to identify and assess short-term price movements makes this indicator quite useful.
The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence indicator was invented by Gerald Appel in 1979.
Moving Average Convergence/Divergence is calculated using a 12-day EMA and 26-day EMA. It is important to note that both the EMAs are based on closing prices. The convergence and divergence (CD) values have to be calculated first. The CD value is calculated by subtracting the 26-day EMA from the 12-day EMA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The relative strength index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis. RSI measures the speed and magnitude of a security's recent price changes to detect overbought or oversold conditions in the price of that security.
The RSI is displayed as an oscillator (a line graph) on a scale of zero to 100. The indicator was developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. and introduced in his seminal 1978 book, New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems.
In addition to identifying overbought and oversold securities, the RSI can also indicate securities that may be primed for a trend reversal or a corrective pullback in price. It can signal when to buy and sell. Traditionally, an RSI reading of 70 or above indicates an overbought condition. A reading of 30 or below indicates an oversold condition.

MACD Volume Strategy for XAUUSD (15m) [PineIndicators]The MACD Volume Strategy is a momentum-based trading system designed for XAUUSD on the 15-minute timeframe. It integrates two key market indicators: the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and a volume-based oscillator to identify strong trend shifts and confirm trade opportunities. This strategy uses dynamic position sizing, incorporates leverage customization, and applies structured entry and exit conditions to improve risk management.
⚙️ Core Strategy Components
1️⃣ Volume-Based Momentum Calculation
The strategy includes a custom volume oscillator to filter trade signals based on market activity. The oscillator is derived from the difference between short-term and long-term volume trends using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
Short EMA (default = 5) represents recent volume activity.
Long EMA (default = 8) captures broader volume trends.
Positive values indicate rising volume, supporting momentum-based trades.
Negative values suggest weak market activity, reducing signal reliability.
By requiring positive oscillator values, the strategy ensures momentum confirmation before entering trades.
2️⃣ MACD Trend Confirmation
The strategy uses the MACD indicator as a trend filter. The MACD is calculated as:
Fast EMA (16-period) detects short-term price trends.
Slow EMA (26-period) smooths out price fluctuations to define the overall trend.
Signal Line (9-period EMA) helps identify crossovers, signaling potential trend shifts.
Histogram (MACD – Signal) visualizes trend strength.
The system generates trade signals based on MACD crossovers around the zero line, confirming bullish or bearish trend shifts.
📌 Trade Logic & Conditions
🔹 Long Entry Conditions
A buy signal is triggered when all the following conditions are met:
✅ MACD crosses above 0, signaling bullish momentum.
✅ Volume oscillator is positive, confirming increased trading activity.
✅ Current volume is at least 50% of the previous candle’s volume, ensuring market participation.
🔻 Short Entry Conditions
A sell signal is generated when:
✅ MACD crosses below 0, indicating bearish momentum.
✅ Volume oscillator is positive, ensuring market activity is sufficient.
✅ Current volume is less than 50% of the previous candle’s volume, showing decreasing participation.
This multi-factor approach filters out weak or false signals, ensuring that trades align with both momentum and volume dynamics.
📏 Position Sizing & Leverage
Dynamic Position Calculation:
Qty = strategy.equity × leverage / close price
Leverage: Customizable (default = 1x), allowing traders to adjust risk exposure.
Adaptive Sizing: The strategy scales position sizes based on account equity and market price.
Slippage & Commission: Built-in slippage (2 points) and commission (0.01%) settings provide realistic backtesting results.
This ensures efficient capital allocation, preventing overexposure in volatile conditions.
🎯 Trade Management & Exits
Take Profit & Stop Loss Mechanism
Each position includes predefined profit and loss targets:
Take Profit: +10% of risk amount.
Stop Loss: Fixed at 10,100 points.
The risk-reward ratio remains balanced, aiming for controlled drawdowns while maximizing trade potential.
Visual Trade Tracking
To improve trade analysis, the strategy includes:
📌 Trade Markers:
"Buy" label when a long position opens.
"Close" label when a position exits.
📌 Trade History Boxes:
Green for profitable trades.
Red for losing trades.
📌 Horizontal Trade Lines:
Shows entry and exit prices.
Helps identify trend movements over multiple trades.
This structured visualization allows traders to analyze past performance directly on the chart.
