Re: MACD indicators for MT4

MACD, short for moving average convergence/divergence, is a trading indicator used in technical analysis of stock prices, created by Gerald Appel in the late 1970s.
It is designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price.


Attached is a template to trade the Zerolag MACD.

There are 3 bbsqueeze indicators. One for EMA12. One for EMA26. And one for EMA9.
rex X means that the Bollinger band is squeezed inside the Keltner channel. Do not trade.
green dots means it's OK to trade.

As you can see in the following example, EURUSD is consolidating in the Asian session.
The Bollinger bands of EMA12, EMA26, EMA9 are squeezed.

Here's a new template that display Zerolag EMA (12,26,9) on the chart instead of regular EMA (12,6,9).

According to the source code, the display arrows are based on:
switch(AlertsArrowsOn)
{
case 0 : CrossDescription = "Zero lag MACD - MACD crossed signal line ";
case 1 : CrossDescription = "Zero lag MACD - MACD crossed zero line ";
case 2 : CrossDescription = "Zero lag MACD - Signal line crossed zero line ";
}
Look like GPYJPY got two Bollinger Squeeze breakout in the London session today.
One of them goes from Fibo 23.6 to Fibo 61.8. That's about 68 pips???
Fibo 61.8 to Fibo 76.4 is a long squeeze; for hours.
And then another break out to the upside near Fibo 76.4
And then ...

Thanks for sharing and updating this old gem Mrtools :)

For those wondering what the "Impulse System" is, it's a simple trading system by Alexander Elder himself which consists of the MACD and the 13 period EMA.
Many traders including LazyBear from Tradingview also incorporate a 65 period EMA to show the prevailing trend.

The rules of the system are:

  • Trade short (Sell) when the 13-period EMA falling
    MACD(12,26,9) histogram falling
  • Trade long (Buy) 13-period EMA rising
    MACD(12,26,9) histogram rising

Below is the Impulse System for MT4 with which includes the 65 EMA & 13 EMA (in Moving Average Ribbon form) as well as the WIS MACD by Vladimir Gospodinov which was purposely designed for this system.

A PDF has also been attached which includes information on Elder's systems.

PS: Thanks to Mrtools's MTF + Interpolation this system works very well on the 1 Hour charts using 4 Hour MTF :thumbup:
