Bitcoin CME Retail vs Professionals MACD
This is an interesting study using the data provided by the Bitcoin CME Commitment of Traders report.
The MACD plot the difference between the Retail Traders positions and the Professional Traders positions.
The general idea is that Professional Traders have a better read on the market than Retail Traders.
The signal line helps to identify the trend that it is moving in.
I believe that this plot helps to visualize the overall market sentiment better than the raw COT data.

Cracking Cryptocurrency - Waddah Attar Explosion Cracking Cryptocurrency - Waddah Attar Explosion
An entry indicator that analyzes momentum and volume . This indicator is very sensitive and works very well on lower time frames for scalping, and higher time frames for confirming explosive movements or shifts in trend or rising directional momentum in the market.
This indicator can be used as an Initiator, Confirmer, or Vol. Filter. It's multiple components make it an extremely effective tool in any trader's tool belt.
Features & Functions
This indicator can be customized by adjusting the sensitivity levels, lengths, and multiplier. However, I find that the settings that I have made as default work very well. However, as with all indicators, nuance and customizing your settings to your asset class and time frame will yield greater results.
False Positive Filter - Enabling this, as it is by default, will dramatically change this indicator's sensitivity. This is designed to analyze long-term momentum and reduce the occurrence of "false positives". However, the trade off will be reduced reaction speed.
Entry Strategy - Print alerts and trading signals for many different permutations of entry strategies available with this indicator. Explosion Level Crossovers, Color Flips, Rising Explosion Level Cross, and Rising Explosion Level.
Exit Strategy - Print alerts and trading signals for many different permutations of exit strategies available with this indicator. Explosion Level Cross, Receding Delta, Color Flip, Falling Explosion Level.
Bar Coloring - This indicator colors the bars to indicate a buy or sell signal, as well as printing Up and Down arrows in the indicator pane itself. This can be disabled in the settings window.
Alerts - This indicator is programmed with Buy and Sell alerts, available from the Alerts Window.

Purpose
To identify likely turning points in the market, the existence of powerful momentum to confirm a directional bias, or the introduction of high volume or volatility into the market.
Yorks Mac 2This indicator fires trade entry based upon overall trend (Price above/below EMA), MACD Cross, and the MACD value being greater than or less than zero.
When all conditions are true, the signal fires.

MACD histogram relative open/closePrelude
This script makes it easy to capture MACD Histogram open/close for automated trading.
There seems to be no "magic" value for MACD Histogram that always works as a cut-off for trade entry/exit, because of the variation in market price over time.
The idea behind this script is to replicate the view of the MACD graph we (humans) see on the screen, in mathematics, so the computer can approximately detect when the curve is opening/closing.
Math
The maths for this is composed of 2 sections -
1. Entry -
i. To trigger entry, we normalize the Histogram value by first determining the lowest and highest values on the MACD curves (MACD, Signal & Hist).
ii. The lowest and highest values are taken over the "Frame of reference" which is a hyperparameter.
iii. Once the frame of reference is determined, the entry cutoff param can be defined with respect to the values from (i) (10% by default)
2. Exit
To trigger an exit, a trader searches for the point where the Histogram starts to drop "steeply".
To convert the notion of "steep" into mathematics -
i. Take the max histogram value reached since last MACD curve flip
ii. Define the cutoff with reference to the value from (i) (30% by default)
Plots
Gray - Dead region
Blue - Histogram opening
Red - Histogram is closing
Notes
A good value for the frame of reference can be estimated by looking at the timescale of the graph you generally work with during manual trading.
For me, that turned out to be ~2.5 hours. (as shown in the above graph)
For a 3-minute ticker, frame of reference = 2.5 * 60 / 3 = 50
Which is the default given in this script.
Ultimately, it is up to you to do grid search and find these hyperparams for the stock and ticker size you're working with.
Also, this script only serves the purpose of detecting the Histogram curve opening/closing.
You may want to add further checks to perform proper trading using MACD.
Bitcoin Dominance MomentumThis is a simple study of Bitcoin Dominance vs Altcoin Performance.
The general idea, is that as Bitcoin Dominance falls, Altcoins rise, and vice versa.
So, I decided to plot a MACD indicator of CRYPTOCAP:BTC.D to judge macro turning points in the cryptocurrency markets.
MACD exit % indicatorIntroduction
An exit indicator for MACD, good for triggering order exit via MACD.
It works by considering and the .
Then, it just exits when the % change in these values surpasses a threshold.
Indicators
blue line - MACD
orange line - Signal
green/red columns - Histogram
aqua background - Last Histogram Flip
fuchsia background - Max abs(Histogram) value after last flip
orange Background - Exit region
{INDYAN} Ichimoku for IntradayIts based on ichimoku, i removed cloud and mod some changes for better use in intraday trading. It can be used in stocks and index as well.Not tested on MCX and Forex.
Just watch at crossover of tenkan and kijun that RSI macd is above 60 and zero or not? If all three parameters meet go for long... exit when again another cross happen or rsi go below 40.for sell side watch for rsi below 40 and macd below zero line while crossover of kijun tenkan.
Better to use it with RSI+Macd Fast to get more accurate results.
#for better confirmation look value of VWAP and decide accordingly
Do back test before using it.
Happy Trading
Love INDyAN
#change line color as per ur wish but value should be same as it was default entered.
Crypto Monitor / DashboardI created a Crypto Monitoring Dashboard!
Here is the idea behind it:
Monitor up to 4x Symbols on one chart
Monitor 2x Time Frames at once
Monitor 3x indicators
So to get into the details a bit more and how to use it. There are 4 separate rows for each symbol
Row 1: Shows the status of the MACD indicator on the higher and lower time frame and color codes them accordingly.
Row 2: Shows the higher time frame RSI value compared to pre-determined values for bullish , oversold, and overbought.
Row 3: Shows the lower time frame RSI value compared to pre-determined values for bullish , oversold, and overbought.
Row 4: Shows the status of the price compared to the moving average. Price greater then the MA is considered bullish ; below is bearish
Since things get rather cramped with the multiple symbols on all at once, the intention is that you enlarge this and look at just ( aka not with the bar chart) this for your favorite 4 coins and then when you see the conditions you want, you close it and open the chart of your coin.
Please feel free to leave a comment if you have questions or suggestions on how to improve it! Appreciate the feedback
{INDYAN} RSI + MACDModded RSI and MACD for intraday use. If rsi above 60 and macd is above zero line then go for buy and if rsi is below 40 and macd below zero line then go for sell side. use it in small timeframe i.e. 3 minute or less.
better for scalp trading
Happy Trading
Love INDYAN
#It can be used best with INDYAN Go With Trend
Volume-Weighted Elder Impulse SystemThis is a volume-weighted version of the Elder Impulse System. The Elder Impulse System utilizes the MACD along with EMA13(in general) to find the optimal entry and exit points. In this version, the MACD and EMA have both been changed into a Volume-weighted version. With volume involved, the indicator is, in general, faster than the original Elder Impulse system, in showing entry and exit points.
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)
DiNapoli MACD MTFSimple oscillator, based on formula from Joe Dinapoli for MACD oscillator. Simply it's analysing current timeframe (bottom row) and 2 higher timeframes.
Basic BIASBasic BIAS
Deviation rate (bias), also known as deviation rate, or y-value for short, is an indicator to reflect the deviation degree between the price and MA in a certain period of time by calculating the percentage difference between the market index or closing price and a moving average, so as to obtain the possibility that the price will reverse or rebound due to deviation from moving average trend in case of severe fluctuation, and that the price will move within the normal fluctuation range Form the credibility of continuing the original potential.
The deviation rate is a percentage of the deviation degree (gap rate) between the price and ma.
The departure rate curve (bias) is a curve that connects the values of each bias into a line and obtains a wave extension curve with the value of 0 as the horizontal axis.
Jackrabbit.modulus.MACDThis is the MACD indicator for the Jackrabbit suite and modulus framework.
This indicator supports differential timeframe analysis and confirmational bias. Timeframes supported:
1 Second, 5 Seconds, 15 Seconds, 30 Seconds, 1 Minute, 5 Minutes, 15 Minutes, 30 Minutes, 45 Minutes, 1 Hour, 2 Hours, 3 Hours, 4 Hours, 6 Hours, 8 Hours, 12 Hours, and 1 Day
The main indicatior and the confirmational indicator can both be individually tuned for the fast, slow, and delta lines with different and independent lengths and 24 different moving average types:
SMA, Double SMA, Triple SMA,
EMA, Double EMA, Triple EMA,
WMA, Double WMA, Triple WMA,
VWMA, Double VWMA, Triple VWMA,
Hull, Double Hull, Triple Hull,
ZLEMA, Double ZLEMA, Triple ZLEMA,
SSMA, Double SSMA, Triple SSMA,
SMMA,Double SMMA, Triple SMMA
Both MACDs can also have their own source input: Open, Close, High, Low, HL2, HLC3, and OHLC4
The Jackrabbit modulus framework is a plug in play paradigm built to operate through TradingView's indicator on indicatior (IoI) functionality. As such, this script receives a signal line from the previous script in the IoI chain, and evaluates the buy/sell signals appropriate to the current analysis. The results are either combined with the signal line, or used as confirmation to the signal line. A new signal line is generated for the next script in the link.
Buy/Sell alerts are produced by the main Jackrabbit script, or the modulus AlertSystem script. This script is not designed or meant to function outside my framework and contains no alert capabilities.
By default, the signal line is visible and the charts are turned off. Signal line visibility is controlled by the Style tab, and the charts display is controlled by the indicator settings tab.
This script is by invitation only. To learn more about accessing this script, please see my signature or send me a PM. Thank you.
Fear And Greed IndicatorThe Fear And Greed Indicator is a very popular indicator on the Bloomberg platform and since I didn't have actual source code to work with, this is a very close approximation of that indicator. Let me know if you spot any discrepancies with the original and I will do my best to fix them.
For buy and sell signals it is pretty straightforward. Just buy when the green (greed) is in control and sell when the fear (red) is in control
This was a special request so let me know if you want to see more scripts from me or if you want something custom!
Trading Safely Multiple Time Frame Dynamic MACDOur Multi-Time frame MACD is a Zero-Lag (well near zero-lag) We make this claim because MACD utilizes Moving Averages and as you know moving averages are lagging indicators.
For our MACD we utilize The McGinley Dynamic which looks like a moving average line yet it is a smoothing mechanism for prices that turns out to track far better than any moving average.
The McGinley Dynamic minimizes price separation, price whipsaws and hugs prices much more closely.
The McGinley Dynamic does this automatically as this is a factor of the formula.
Because of the calculation, the Dynamic Line speeds up in down markets as it follows prices yet moves more slowly in up markets.
As traders we want to be quick to sell in a down market, yet ride an up market as long as possible.
How to Trade.
It best to use lower time frame charts and higher time frame MACD settings such as 1H chart and 6H (360min) MACD time frame
You can input any time frame in minutes from 1 min to 1440 minutes on the MACD settings.
1H = 60
2H = 120
3H = 180
4H = 240
6H = 360
12H = 720
24H = 1440
Week = W
Month = M
You can set alerts for bullish and bearish crossovers which are good indications of a potential entry into a long or short trade.

KILTED TREND PILOTDescription: Uses the Hull Moving Average ( HMA ) and MACD to observe the following strategy, to assist with trade setups and provide confluence. It is especially effective when used with the Kilted Strength Meter to make sure there is an active trend and the market is not moving sideways.
SETTINGS AND EXPLANATION
1. The strategy is a very simple and visual one where you go:
• Long when the short HMA colour matches the long HMA colour (which is when the 2 colours are blue for a long position).
• Short when the short HMA colour matches the long HMA colour (which is when the 2 colours are red for a short position)
2. Ideally you want to enter a trade when the market is trending and not moving sideways, hence the reason the Kilted Strength Meter makes a great companion to complement this strategy
MACD with divergence signalsIts an MACD indicator which highlights places where macd and signal line cross and hidden divergence ocures.
Logic behind it is to check if we have hidden divergence when crossing of that two lines and if above EMA200 (signal for BUY - green) or if below EMA200 (signal for SELL - red).
You can change lenght of EMA but i think 200 is a simpliest trend indicator.
Crypto Cradle v6A long signal (green bar background) is flagged if a small bullish candle is in/around the EMA10/20 cradle.
A short signal (red bar background) is flagged if a small bearish candle is in/around the EMA10/20 cradle.
Other factors must be present such as MACD convergence and higher timeframe trend.
The blue bar is the entry. The red bar is the stop.
The strategy is designed to discretionally trade trending cryptocurrency assets.
SETTINGS:
Experiment with the zig-zag trend sensitivity (3-4 works best) to match entry timeframe trend detection.
* 'Zig Zag - Must require pullback trend' - sometimes a small bullish / bearish candle can appear in the cradle zone without a clear pullback (ie price has travelled sideways into the EMAs). Switch this on in an attempt to exclude such pull-backs.
* 'Zig Zag - Require extra trend zig' - trend is determined by a H, L, HH, HL forming (for long). Tis setting requests one more trend-aligned zig/zag (ie L, H, HL, HH, HL).
* 'Zig Zag - Show Higher Time Period Trend' - the trend sensitivity is doubled to estimate higher timeframe trend. This visualises what the algorithm has determined as the higher timeframe zig-zag pivot points .
* 'Minimum candles since outer pivot' - this attempts to exclude signals that occur after a dramatic pull-back.
* 'Entry Candle Offset Max' - how many bars to wait for entry
PROFIT TAKING:
There are many ways to take profit after entry - trailing stops, scaling out 50% at 1:1, fixed targets, fib extensions, etc. This is out of scope for this indicator.
I have included a basic 1:1 level line (dull green when enabled) and a fixed target level line ( bright green when enabled) that uses a risk/reward multiplier.
ALERT:
To create a generic alert, click the + button in the Alerts panel, select 'Crypto Cradle v6' from the first list, select 'Cradle v6 Short/Long Alert' from the second list, and select 'Once Per Bar Close'. Don't forget to add the timeframe to the message.
This indicator supersedes the open-sourced '"Crypto Cradle" trigger' / 'Crypto Cradle v2' indicator seen here:
CDC ActionZone V3 2020## CDC ActionZone V3 2020 ##
This is an update to my earlier script, CDC ActionZone V2
The two scripts works slightly differently with V3 reacting slightly faster.
The main update is focused around conforming the standard to Pine Script V4.
## How it works ##
ActionZone is a very simple system, utilizing just two exponential moving
averages. The 'Zones' in which different 'actions' should be taken is
highlighted with different colors on the chart. Calculations for the zones
are based on the relative position of price to the two EMA lines and the
relationship between the two EMAs
CDCActionZone is your barebones basic, tried and true, trend following system
that is very simple to follow and has also proven to be relatively safe.
## How to use ##
The basic method for using ActionZone is to follow the green/red color.
Buy when bar closes in green.
Sell when bar closes in red.
There is a small label to help with reading the buy and sell signal.
Using it this way is safe but slow and is expected to have around 35-40%
accuracy, while yielding around 2-3 profit factors. The system works best
on larger time frames.
The more advanced method uses the zones to switch between different
trading system and biases, or in conjunction with other indicators.
example 1:
Buy when blue and Bullish Divergence between price and RSI is visible,
if not Buy on Green and vise-versa
example 2:
Set up a long-biased grid and trade long only when actionzone is in
green, yellow or orange.
change the bias to short when actionzone turns to te bearish side
(red, blue, aqua)
(Look at colors on a larger time frame)
## Note ##
The price field is set to close by default. change to either HL2 or OHLC4
when using the system in intraday timeframes or on market that does not close
(ie. Cryptocurrencies)
## Note2 ##
The fixed timeframe mode is for looking at the current signal on a larger time frame
ie. When looking at charts on 1h you can turn on fixed time frame on 1D to see the
current 'zone' on the daily chart plotted on to the hourly chart.
This is useful if you wanted to use the system's 'Zones' in conjunction with other
types of signals like Stochastic RSI, for example.
