VOLUME WEIGHTED MACD V2 VWMACDV2 BY KIVANÇ fr3762Second version of Buff Dormeier's Volume Weighted MACD indicator....
Here in this version; Exponential Moving Averages used and Weighted by Volume instead of using only vwma ( Volume Weighted Moving Averages).
I personally asked Mr Dormeier, the developer of this indicator, and he confirmed this second version could be used.
I personally think that this one is more effective when comparing with the vwma version...
Volume Weighted MACD
Volume Weighted MACD (VW-MACD) was created by Buff Dormeier and described in his book Investing With Volume Analysis. It represents the convergence and divergence of volume-weighted price trends.
The inclusion of volume allows the VW-MACD to be generally more responsive and reliable than the traditional MACD .
What is MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)?
Moving Average Convergence Divergence was created by Gerald Appel in 1979. Standard MACD plots the difference between a short term exponential average and a long term exponential average. When the difference (the MACD line) is positive and rising, it suggests prices trend is up. When the MACD line is negative, it suggests prices trend is down.
A smooth exponential average of this difference is calculated to form the MACD signal line. When the MACD line is above the MACD signal line, it illustrates that the momentum of MACD is rising. Likewise, when the MACD is below the MACD signal line, the momentum of the MACD falls. This difference between the MACD line and the MACD signal line is frequently plotted as a histogram to highlight the spread between the two lines.
What is the difference between MACD and VW-MACD?
Volume Weighted MACD is substituting the two exponential moving averages to compute the MACD difference with the two corresponding Volume-Weighted Moving Average . Thus, VW-MACD contrasts a volume-weighted short term trend from the volume-weighted longer term trend.
The signal line is left as an exponential moving average because VW-MACD line is already volume weighted.

Cumulative Force Oscillator with MACDCumulative Force Oscillator with MACD
The Cumulative Force Oscillator with MACD is an advanced technical indicator designed to provide traders with a unique perspective on market momentum and trend strength. By combining the power of cumulative candle force analysis with MACD crossover signals, this indicator offers a multifaceted approach to market analysis.
Key Features
1. Cumulative Force Calculation**: Measures the net force of price movements over a specified number of candles.
2. MACD Integration**: Incorporates MACD crossover signals for additional trend confirmation.
3. Visual Cues**: Utilizes color-coded oscillator lines and background zones for easy interpretation.
4. **Dynamic Labeling**: Displays real-time force values and percentage changes.
How It Works
Cumulative Force Calculation
The indicator calculates the "force" of each candle by subtracting the open price from the close price. It then sums this force over a user-defined number of candles to create a cumulative force value. This value oscillates above and below zero, indicating bullish or bearish pressure respectively.
MACD Crossover Detection
The indicator uses the standard MACD (12, 26, 9) to detect bullish and bearish crossovers. These crossovers are visually represented by colored background zones, providing an additional layer of trend confirmation.
Visual Representation
- The main oscillator line is plotted in green when above zero (bullish) and red when below zero (bearish).
- Background colors change based on MACD crossovers: light blue for bullish crossovers and light orange for bearish crossovers.
- A dynamic label displays the current cumulative force value and its percentage change from the previous period.
Interpretation
1. Oscillator Line : When the line is above zero, it indicates net bullish pressure; below zero suggests net bearish pressure.
2. Oscillator Momentum : The steepness and direction of the oscillator line indicate the strength and direction of the current market force.
3. MACD Crossovers : Blue background zones suggest potential bullish trends, while orange zones indicate potential bearish trends.
4. Divergences : Look for divergences between the oscillator and price action for potential trend reversal signals.
Customization
Users can customize several aspects of the indicator :
- Number of candles for force calculation
- Label offset and text size
- Color schemes (through code modification)
Conclusion
The Cumulative Force Oscillator with MACD is a versatile tool that combines momentum analysis with trend confirmation signals. By providing a visual representation of cumulative market force alongside MACD crossovers, it offers traders a comprehensive view of market dynamics. This indicator can be particularly useful for identifying potential trend reversals, confirming existing trends, and gauging overall market strength.

Volume-MACD-RSI Integrated StrategyDescription:
This script integrates three well-known technical analysis tools—Volume, MACD, and RSI—into a single signal meant to help traders identify potential turning points under strong market conditions.
Concept Overview:
Volume Filter: We compare the current bar’s volume to a 20-period volume average and require it to exceed a specified multiplier. This ensures that signals occur only during periods of heightened market participation. The logic is that moves on low volume are less reliable, so we wait for increased activity to confirm potential trend changes.
MACD Momentum Shift:
We incorporate MACD crossovers to determine when momentum is changing direction. MACD is a popular momentum indicator that identifies shifts in trend by comparing short-term and long-term EMAs. A bullish crossover (MACD line crossing above the signal line) may suggest upward momentum is building, while a bearish crossunder can indicate momentum turning downward.
RSI Market Condition Check:
RSI helps us identify overbought or oversold conditions. By requiring that RSI be oversold on buy signals and overbought on sell signals, we attempt to pinpoint entries where price could be at an extreme. The idea is to position entries or exits at junctures where price may be due for a reversal.
How the Script Works Together:
Volume Confirmation: No signals fire unless there’s strong volume. This reduces false positives.
MACD Momentum Check: Once volume confirms market interest, MACD crossover events serve as a trigger to initiate consideration of a trade signal.
RSI Condition: Finally, RSI determines whether the market is at an extreme. This final layer helps ensure we only act on signals that have both momentum shift and a price at an extreme level, potentially increasing the reliability of signals.
Intended Use:
This script can help highlight potential reversal points or trend shifts during active market periods.
Traders can use these signals as a starting point for deeper analysis. For instance, a “BUY” arrow may prompt a trader to investigate the market context, confirm with other methods, or look for patterns that further support a long entry.
The script is best used on markets with reliable volume data, such as stocks or futures, and can be experimented with across different timeframes. Adjusting the RSI thresholds, MACD parameters, and volume multiplier can help tailor it to specific instruments or trading styles.
Chart Setup:
When adding this script to your chart, it should be the only indicator present, so you can clearly see the red “BUY” arrows and green “SELL” arrows at the candle closes where signals occur.
The chart should be kept clean and uncluttered for clarity. No other indicators are necessary since the logic is already integrated into this single script.
Polyphase MACD (PMACD)The Polyphase MACD (PMACD) uses polyphase decimation to create a continuous estimate of higher timeframe MACD behavior. The number of phases represents the timeframe multiplier - for example, 3 phases approximates a 3x higher timeframe.
Traditional higher timeframe MACD indicators update only when each higher timeframe bar completes, creating stepped signals that can miss intermediate price action. The PMACD addresses this by maintaining multiple phase-shifted MACD calculations and combining them with appropriate anti-aliasing filters. This approach eliminates the discrete jumps typically seen in higher timeframe indicators, though the resulting signal may sometimes deviate from the true higher timeframe values due to its estimative nature.
The indicator processes price data through parallel phase calculations, each analyzing a different time-offset subset of the data. These phases are filtered and combined to prevent aliasing artifacts that occur in simple timeframe conversions. The result is a smooth, continuous signal that begins providing meaningful values immediately, without requiring a warm-up period of higher timeframe bars.
The PMACD maintains the standard MACD components - the MACD line (fast MA - slow MA), signal line, and histogram - while providing a more continuous view of higher timeframe momentum. Users can select between EMA and SMA calculations for both the oscillator and signal components, with all calculations benefiting from the same polyphase processing technique.
Volume Wave Trend ConfirmationUtility of the Indicator
The core utility of this indicator lies in its ability to utilize volume, a less frequently exploited metric in MACD analysis, providing several strategic advantages:
Trend Confirmation: By focusing on volume, the indicator confirms whether movements in price are backed by significant trading activity. A rising MACD line above the signal line, paired with increasing volume, can confirm the strength of an uptrend. Conversely, if the histogram turns negative while the MACD line falls below the signal line during a price drop, it confirms a robust downtrend.
Early Warning Signals: Changes in the histogram and divergences between the MACD and Signal lines can serve as early warnings of potential reversals or slowdowns in market momentum. For instance, a shrinking histogram in an uptrend might suggest that the upward movement is losing steam.
Market Sentiment: The integration of volume into the MACD framework allows the indicator to provide insights into underlying market sentiment. Higher volumes during price movements indicate stronger conviction among traders, making the trend more reliable.
Indicator Functionality
The "Volume Wave Trend Confirmation" indicator is built on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) framework, but with a unique twist: it uses the smoothed moving averages (SMA) of trading volumes instead of price. The indicator calculates two specific SMAs of the volume — a shorter 33-period SMA and a longer 100-period SMA — and computes their difference. This difference is then used as the input for the MACD calculation, with typical parameters set at 12, 26, and a signal line of 9.
MACD Line (Blue): Represents the main line, calculated as the difference between the 12-period and 26-period exponential moving averages (EMA) of the volume difference.
Signal Line (Orange): A 9-period EMA of the MACD line, acting as a trigger for buy or sell signals.
Histogram (Blue/Purple): Measures the distance between the MACD line and the Signal line, colored blue when positive (above the Signal line) and purple when negative (below the Signal line).
Break of High/Low with Volume, MACD, and MAsHow It Works:
Sessions:
The London session is defined between 8:00 and 16:00 UTC.
The New York session is defined between 13:00 and 21:00 UTC.
Previous High/Low:
The script identifies the highest high and lowest low from the previous bar using ta.highest(high, 1) and ta.lowest(low, 1) .
Candle Body Size:
The script calculates the size of the current candle's body and checks if it is at least double the size of the previous candle's body.
Volume Check:
A high volume threshold is set as 1.5 times the 50-period SMA of the volume.
MACD Crossover:
The script calculates the MACD and its signal line and checks for bullish (buy) or bearish (sell) crossovers.
Signals:
A long signal (buy) is generated if the price breaks the previous high with a large body candle, high volume, and a bullish MACD crossover during the specified sessions.
A short signal (sell) is generated if the price breaks the previous low with a large body candle, high volume, and a bearish MACD crossover during the specified sessions.
Plotting:
The 50-period and 200-period moving averages, previous high, and previous low are plotted on the chart.
If a long condition is met, a "BUY" label is displayed below the bar. If a short condition is met, a "SELL" label is displayed above the bar.
Alerts:
Alerts are triggered whenever the conditions for a long or short trade are met.
Customization:
Feel free to adjust the session times, volume threshold, MACD settings, or moving averages based on your trading strategy or the specific asset you are trading.
RSI-based MACDThe RSI is one of the most popular indicators available. This indicator, which represents the strength of market momentum based on the gains and losses over the past 14 candlesticks, is rational and is mainly used as an oscillator to determine overbought or oversold conditions. However, because the RSI is an older indicator, its very simple design—displaying only a single line on the graph—may feel somewhat lacking in functionality to modern traders. The main issue is that there is no objective measure to determine whether the RSI is currently rising or falling.
That’s when I came up with the idea of calculating the MACD based on the smoothed values of the RSI. As is well known, the MACD is an indicator that represents the distance between moving averages, designed to show when the moving averages cross as the value falls below zero. By observing the golden crosses and death crosses of the MACD and signal line, one can anticipate the golden and death crosses of the moving averages. Applying the same logic, I thought that calculating the MACD based on RSI values would allow us to predict the rise and fall of the RSI by observing these golden and death crosses.
Currently, the RSI is often used as a contrarian indicator to determine overbought and oversold conditions, but with this approach, I believe the RSI can instead function extremely well as a trend-following indicator. Whenever an uptrend occurs, the RSI inevitably rises, and when a downtrend occurs, the RSI inevitably falls. Therefore, by predicting the rise and fall of the RSI, it becomes possible to forecast what kind of trend is likely to develop.
In this indicator, the MACD calculated from the RSI is displayed, with the original RSI line plotted above it. Since the scales of the RSI and MACD are different, I originally wanted to provide a separate scale for the RSI on the left side. However, due to TradingView’s limitations, it seems quite difficult to display more than one scale in a single panel, so I had to give up on that. Instead, I ask that you mentally multiply the RSI values displayed on the right by 10—for example, 2.11 indicates 21.1%.
Additionally, as a bonus, I’ve included a feature that detects divergences. With these features, I believe this has become the most useful indicator when compared to existing RSI-based indicators. I hope you find it helpful in your trading.

Gaussian Filter Implementation : The core innovation lies in applying a Gaussian filter to the input price series. This mathematical technique smooths the price data, significantly reducing market noise and making trend signals clearer and more reliable. The Gaussian filter calculates a smoothed value for each data point by weighting nearby data points, with the weights decreasing as the distance from the current data point increases.
Refined MACD Calculation : The Gaussian MACD is derived from the difference between two Gaussian smoothed moving averages (fast and slow), which are then normalized to account for market volatility. This normalization process involves dividing the difference by a measure of market range (such as the high minus the low), and multiplying by a factor (usually 100) to scale the indicator appropriately.

BBO_Roxana_Signals MACD + volDescription of BBO_Roxana_Signals MACD + vol Script
This script is designed to provide trading signals based on a combination of the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator and volume analysis. Here's a systematic breakdown of how the script functions:
Volume Accumulation Check:
The script first accumulates volume data over time. It ensures that there's volume data available for analysis. If no volume data is provided, it generates a runtime error.
MACD Calculation:
The script calculates the MACD indicator using the provided parameters, including fast and slow lengths for exponential moving averages (EMA), as well as signal smoothing.
It computes the fast and slow EMAs, calculates the MACD line by subtracting the slow EMA from the fast EMA, and then computes the signal line.
Volume Oscillator Calculation:
It calculates a volume oscillator by computing the difference between short and long EMAs of volume and then normalizing the result to a percentage.
Signal Generation:
Long signals are generated when there's a crossover of the MACD line above the zero line and the volume oscillator is above the zero line. These are marked on the chart with upward green triangles.
Short signals are generated when there's a crossunder of the MACD line below the zero line and the volume oscillator is above the zero line. These are marked on the chart with downward red triangles.
Alerts:
The script also provides alerts for long signals, short signals, and combined signals. These alerts can be used for automated trading or as notifications for manual trading decisions.
Recommendation:
This script should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and trend analysis for comprehensive trading decisions.
It's advisable to backtest the strategy on historical data before deploying it in live trading to evaluate its effectiveness and suitability for your trading goals.
By integrating MACD analysis with volume analysis, the script aims to provide signals based on both momentum and volume trends, offering a more comprehensive approach to trading decision-making.
RSI and MACD Crossover SignalsBest for Short-Term/Intraday Trading on SPY, TSLA, NVDA
Strategy Concept:
This strategy is designed for short-term trading across various assets and timeframes (Recommend: 1min, 5min, 15min, 1hr, 4hr, 1day). It leverages the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) to identify potential buy and sell signals. The strategy aims to capture moments where the asset's price is likely to experience a reversal or a significant momentum shift.
By combining the RSI and MACD indicators, the strategy seeks to increase the accuracy of identifying potential trend reversals or continuations, taking into account both the momentum and the trend direction of the asset.
RSI (Relative Strength Index) Parameters:
The RSI period is set to 14
Overbought and oversold levels are set at 70 and 30, respectively
The RSI is used to identify potential reversal points when the asset is overbought or oversold
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) Parameters:
The MACD settings are configured with a fast length of 8, a slow length of 34, and a signal smoothing of 8
The MACD line crossing over or under the signal line is used to confirm the potential buy or sell signals indicated by the RSI
Signal Generation Logic:
Buy Signal:
Triggered when the RSI crosses above the oversold level (30).
Confirmed if the MACD line crosses above the signal line within a delay period of up to 4 candles after the RSI signal.
Sell Signal:
Triggered when the RSI crosses below the overbought level (70).
Confirmed if the MACD line crosses below the signal line within a delay period of up to 4 candles after the RSI signal.
Additional Features:
The script includes a notification system that alerts the trader when either a buy or sell signal is detected. The alert signal is combined with both the buy and sell signal in 1 so people without premium can be alerted when any signal appears.
Buy signals are visually represented on the chart below the price bars with a green "BUY" label.
Sell signals are indicated above the price bars with a red "SELL" label.
Usage and Application:
This strategy is versatile and recommended to be played with scalps and day trades. I prefer SPY 0DTE on the 1 and 5 minute timeframe and looking for bigger trend reversals on the 1hr, 4hr, and 1 day timeframe.
Time Session Filter - MACD exampleTime Session Filter in TradingView Strategy: A Comprehensive Guide
Welcome to this educational TradingView blog where we dive deep into the functionality and utility of the time session filter in trading strategies. It's interesting to note that the time session filter is a commonly overlooked feature in Pine Script, often not integrated into overall trading strategies. Yet, when used wisely, this tool can significantly enhance your trading approach. In essence, the session filter ensures that trades are only made within a specific, user-defined time frame. By incorporating this often-neglected building block, you can make your strategy more adaptable to various market conditions and trading preferences.
What is a Time Session Filter?
A time session filter is designed to:
Select Times of the Day to Trade: The filter allows you to choose specific hours during the day in which trades are allowed to be excecuted.
Toggle Days to Trade: You can decide which days of the week you want to trade, giving you the flexibility to avoid days that are historically not profitable for your strategy.
Close Trade When Session Ends: The filter can automatically close any open trade once the specified time session concludes, reducing the risk associated with holding positions outside your chosen time frame.
The user interface is streamlined, taking minimal space for the input sections, making it convenient to integrate with other indicators in your overall strategy script. In addition the script colors the background of the chart green when the timesession filter is on and makes the background red when the filter doesn't allow any trades. This helps you to visualise the selected timeframes in relation to chart patterns.
Best Practices for Time Selection
From my personal trading experience I share some input settings you can try to play around with:
Stocks: Trading stocks sometimes yield better results if you only trade in the mornings until lunchtime. This is the period when markets are generally more active, and traders are keenly participating.
Cryptocurrencies: For cryptocurrencies, it sometimes makes sense to avoid trading on Fridays, a day when futures contracts often expire. Various other market-moving events also typically occur on Fridays.
Random Selection: Interestingly, sometimes choosing a random selection of times and days can improve the script's performance, adding an element of unpredictability that might outperform more systematic approaches.

[blackcat] L3 MACD and RSI Fusion The MACD and RSI fusion is a popular technical analysis strategy used by traders to identify buy and sell signals in the market. The strategy makes use of two popular technical indicators, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and combines them to create a powerful trading signal.
The MACD and RSI fusion was originally developed for the Chinese stock market and is commonly used by traders all over the world. The strategy is based on the idea that the MACD and RSI indicators can be used together to provide a more accurate and reliable signal.
To use the MACD and RSI fusion , traders need to follow a few simple steps. The following code is the TradingView Pine script v4 indicator equivalent of the original MACD and RSI fusion code:
```
//@version=4
study(" MACD and RSI fusion ", overlay=false)
// Define the simple fusion indicator
simple_fusion = (ema(close, 12) - ema(close, 26)) * 1.2 + rsi(close, 14) / 50
// Define the simple fusion lag indicator
simple_fusion_lag = nz(simple_fusion )
// Plot the simple fusion and simple fusion lag indicators
plot(simple_fusion, color=color.blue, title="simple fusion")
plot(simple_fusion_lag, color=color.red, title="simple fusion Lag")
```
This code defines the simple fusion and simple fusion Lag indicators and plots them on the chart. The simple fusion indicator is the sum of the 12- and 26-period exponential moving averages of the closing price, multiplied by 1.2, and added to the 14-period relative strength index of the closing price, divided by 50. The simple fusion Lag indicator is the value of the simple fusion indicator from the previous period.
Traders can use the simple fusion and simple fusion Lag indicators to identify buy and sell signals. When the simple fusion indicator crosses above the simple fusion Lag indicator, it is a buy signal, and when the simple fusion indicator crosses below the simple fusion Lag indicator, it is a sell signal.
In conclusion, the MACD and RSI fusion is a simple but powerful technical analysis strategy that combines two popular technical indicators to identify buy and sell signals in the market.
Risk Management and Positionsize - MACD exampleMastering Risk Management
Risk management is the cornerstone of successful trading, and it's often the difference between turning a profit and suffering a loss. In light of its importance, I share a risk management tool which you can use for your trading strategies. The script not only assists in position sizing but also comes with built-in technical features that help in market timing. Let's delve into the nitty-gritty details.
Input Parameter: MarginFactor
One of the key features of the script is the MarginFactor input parameter. This element lets you control the portion of your equity used for placing each trade. A MarginFactor of -0.5 means 50% of your total equity will be deployed in placing the position size. Although Tradingview has a built-in option to adjust position sizing in a same way, I personally prefer to have the logic in my pinecode script. The main reason is userexperience in managing and testing different settings for different charts, timeframes and instruments (with the same strategy).
Stoploss and MarginFactor
If your strategy has a 4% stop-loss, you can choose to use only 50% of your equity by setting the MarginFactor to -0.5. In this case, you are effectively risking only 2% of your total capital per trade, which aligns well with the widely-accepted rule of thumb suggesting a 1-2% risk per trade. Similar if your stoploss is only 1% you can choose to change the MarginFactor to 1, resulting in a positionsize of 200% of your equity. The total risk would be again 2% per trade if your stoploss is set to 1%.
Max Drawdown and MarginFactor
Your MarginFactor setting can also be aligned with the maximum drawdown of your strategy, seen during a backtested period of 2-3 years. For example, if the max drawdown is 15%, you could calibrate your MarginFactor accordingly to limit your risk exposure.
Option to Toggle Number of Contracts
The script offers the option to toggle between using a percentage of equity for position sizing or specifying a fixed number of contracts. Utilizing a percentage of equity might yield unrealistic backtest results, especially over longer periods. This occurs because as the capital grows, the absolute position size also increases, potentially inflating the accumulated returns generated by the backtester. On the other hand, setting a fixed number of contracts as your position size offers a more stable and realistic ROI over the backtested period, as it removes the compounding effect on position sizes.
Key Features Strategy
MACD High Time Frame Entry and Exit Logic
The strategy employs a high time frame MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) to make entry and exit decisions. You can easily adjust the timeframe settings and MACD settings in the inputsection to trade on lower timeframes. For more information on the HTF MACD with dynamic smoothing see:
Moving Average High Time Frame Filter
To reduce market 'noise', the strategy incorporates a high time frame moving average filter. This ensures that the trades are aligned with the dominant market trend (trading the trend). In the inputsection traders can easily switch between different type of moving averages. For more information about this HTF filter see:
Dynamic Smoothing
The script includes a feature for dynamic smoothing. The script contains The timeframeToMinutes(tf) function to convert any given time frame into its equivalent in minutes. For example, a daily (D) time frame is converted into 1440 minutes, a weekly (W) into 10,080 minutes, and so forth. Next the smoothing factor is calculated by dividing the minutes of the higher time frame by those of the current time frame. Finally, the script applies a Simple Moving Average (SMA) over the MACD, SIGNAL, and HIST values, MA filter using the dynamically calculated smoothing factor.
User Convenience: One of the major benefits is that traders don't need to manually adjust the smoothing factor when switching between different time frames. The script does this dynamically.
Visual Consistency: Dynamic smoothing helps traders to more accurately visualize and interpret HTF indicators when trading on lower time frames.
Time Frame Restriction: It's crucial to note that the operational time frame should always be lower than the time frame selected in the input sections for dynamic smoothing to function as intended.
By incorporating this dynamic smoothing logic, the script offers traders a nuanced yet straightforward way to adapt High Time Frame indicators for lower time frame trading, enhancing both adaptability and user experience.
Limitations: Exit Strategy
It's crucial to note that the script comes with a simplified exit strategy, devoid of features like a stop-loss, trailing stop-loss or multiple take profits. This means that while the script focuses on entries and risk management, it might result in higher losses if market conditions unexpectedly turn unfavorable.
Conclusion
Effective risk management is pivotal for trading success, and this TradingView script is designed to give you a better idea how to implement positions sizing with your preferred strategy. However, it's essential to note that this tool should not be considered financial advice. Always perform your due diligence and consult with financial advisors before making any trading decisions.
Feel free to use this risk management tool as building block in your trading scripts, Happy Trading!
Linear On MACDUnlocking the Magic of Linear Regression in TradingView
In the ever-evolving world of financial markets, traders and investors seek effective tools to gauge price movements, make informed decisions, and achieve their financial goals. One such tool that has proven its worth over time is linear regression, a mathematical concept that has found its way into technical analysis and trading strategies. In this blog post, we will explore the magic behind linear regression, delve into its history, and understand how it's widely used as a technical indicator.
The Birth of Linear Regression: From Mathematics to Trading
Linear regression is a statistical method that aims to model the relationship between two variables by fitting a linear equation to observed data. The formula for a linear regression line is typically expressed as y = a + bx, where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, a is the intercept, and b is the slope.
While the roots of linear regression trace back to the field of statistics, it didn't take long for traders and investors to recognize its potential in the financial world. By applying linear regression to historical price data, traders can identify trends, assess the relationship between variables, and even predict potential future price levels.
The Linear On MACD Strategy
Let's take a closer look at a powerful example of how linear regression is employed in a trading strategy right within TradingView. The "Linear On MACD" strategy harnesses the potential of linear regression in conjunction with the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. The goal of this strategy is to generate buy and sell signals based on the interactions between the predicted stock price and the MACD indicator.
Here's a breakdown of the strategy's components:
Calculation of Linear Regression: The strategy begins by calculating linear regression coefficients for the historical stock price based on volume. This helps predict potential future price levels.
Predicted Stock Price: The linear regression results are then used to plot the predicted stock price on the chart. This provides a visual representation of where the price could trend based on historical data.
Buy and Sell Signals: The strategy generates buy signals when certain conditions are met. These conditions include the predicted stock price being between the open and close prices, a rising MACD, and other factors that suggest a potential bullish trend. On the other hand, sell signals are generated based on MACD trends and predicted price levels.
Risk Management: The strategy also incorporates risk tolerance levels to determine entry and exit points. This ensures that traders take into account their risk appetite when making trading decisions.
Embracing the Magic of Linear Regression
As we explore the "Linear On MACD" strategy, we uncover the power of linear regression in aiding traders and investors. Linear regression, a mathematical marvel, seamlessly merges with technical analysis to provide insights into potential price movements. Its historical significance in statistics blends perfectly with the demands of modern financial markets.
Whether you're a seasoned trader or a curious investor, the Linear On MACD strategy exemplifies how a robust mathematical concept can be harnessed to make informed trading decisions. By embracing the magic of linear regression, you're tapping into a tool that continues to evolve alongside the financial world it empowers.

RSI MACDDifferent Perspective : By using the RSI as the source for MACD calculation, you are incorporating the RSI's characteristics into the MACD indicator. The RSI measures the speed and change of price movements, while the MACD focuses on the convergence and divergence of moving averages. Combining these two indicators may provide a different perspective on market conditions.
Smoothed MACD : Since the RSI is being used as the source for the MACD calculation, the resulting MACD line (macd1 in the code) may exhibit smoother movements compared to a traditional MACD calculated directly from price data. This smoothing effect could potentially help filter out noise and provide a clearer representation of trend changes.
RSI Confirmation : The RSI is often used to identify overbought and oversold conditions. By incorporating the RSI into the MACD calculation, you can potentially gain additional confirmation when the MACD line crosses above or below zero. For example, if the MACD line crosses above zero and the RSI is in an oversold region, it could provide stronger confirmation for a bullish signal.
Example:
Price Action - Support & Resistance + MACD LONG StrategyUsing "Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGT" and the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator in TradingView can help develop a trade strategy. Here's a step-by-step approach you can follow:
1. Identifying Support and Resistance Levels: Apply the "Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGT" indicator to your chart. This indicator helps you identify key support and resistance levels based on price action. These levels act as potential areas where the price may reverse or consolidate.
2. Confirming Support and Resistance Levels: Once the indicator has plotted support and resistance levels on your chart, analyze the historical price action around these levels. Look for multiple touches or bounces from the same level, which adds strength to the support or resistance zone.
3. Analyzing the MACD Indicator: Add the MACD indicator to your chart. The MACD consists of two lines: the MACD line and the signal line, along with a histogram representing the difference between the two lines. The MACD helps identify momentum and potential trend reversals.
When the MACD line crosses above the signal line and the histogram turns positive, it suggests bullish momentum.
4. Identifying Trade Opportunities:
Bullish Trade: Look for a bullish setup when the price approaches a strong support level identified by the "Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGT" indicator. Wait for the MACD lines to cross above the signal line and the histogram to turn positive, indicating bullish momentum. Enter a long position with a stop loss below the
support level.
Managing the Trade: Once you enter a trade, consider setting a target based on the distance between your entry point and the nearest significant support or resistance level. You can also use trailing stop losses or other risk management techniques to protect your profits and limit potential losses.
Remember that no trading strategy is guaranteed to be successful, and it's important to practice proper risk management and conduct thorough analysis before making any trading decisions. Additionally, it's recommended to backtest and demo trade this strategy before using it with real money.

[blackcat] L3 Jurik MACDLevel: 3
Background
Use Jurik MA to build MACD and many people need to judge the market trend against the main candlestick chart when using MACD .
Function
First of all, the MACD function is built with Jurik MA and ALMA for better performance.
Second, the principle of MACD is the difference between EMA's long-term and short-term values. So, I wonder if it is possible to use EMA to construct a set of candle charts that are similar in proportion to MACD values for overlapping comparisons? Because this can greatly facilitate traders to make quick trend judgments. So I used the 3-8 lines of EMA to simulate the KD of KDJ, constructed a set of candle charts, and generated buying and selling points through conditional constraints. Do you like this MACD + Candlestick chart?
Key Signal
