This is one of the techniques described by William Blau in his book
"Momentum, Direction and Divergence" (1995). If you like to learn more,
we advise you to read this book. His book focuses on three key aspects

This indicator is a composite of MACD and Z-Score (requested by @ChartAt). The general idea is that counter-trend component of the Z-score is used to adjust/improve the trend component of the MACD. The advantage is that it is a more accurate and “assumption-free” and can more accurately describe how a market or stock actually works in a given time frame.

A while ago I posted a more flexible MACD, known as PPO (See that post for details).
Yesterday I had a request by @ChartArt for a Laguerre MACD. Since I favor PPO to MACD, here it is!

MACD – Moving Average Convergence Divergence. The MACD is calculated
by subtracting a 26-day moving average of a security's price from a
12-day moving average of its price. The result is an indicator that

This is the professional approach to trading, the total opposite of the amateur's style. Beginners jump into trades without thinking too much and take forever to get out, hoping and waiting for...

Another new indicator for TV community :)
STC detects up and down trends long before the MACD. It does this by using the same exponential moving averages (EMAs), but adds a cycle component to factor instrument cycle trends. STC gives more accuracy and reliability than the MACD.

4MACD allows you to see all facets of the current condition or that of a coming change in one pane. You can see the direction of the current momentum. You can see the initiation of a change; you can then see that change occur as the price and momentum move in an opposite direction.
Note that you still need to use other indicators like BB, OBV for confirmation....
