The idea is to filter an indicator by another;

In case there is already a trend going on ; If i take too indicators,
If one of the two indicators indicate a trend, there is still a trend , (up or down) :

First image : LSMA filtering NonLag

Second image : NonLag filtering LSMA

Post your comment and ideas please

Same thing here, the guy indicate a strategy using two indicators which doesn't match

https://www.mql5.com/en/blogs/post/712016

CCI and MACD do not match, CCI is in percent, while MACD is in point.

To use this kind of strattegy the two indicator must either be in point or in percent

CCI, STO, RSI, DE MAKER, MOMENTUM, WILLIAM PERCENT RANGE, can be made to match together.

And the other indicator in point can match together

I got similiar idea
William 26 cross over macd Signal

I have tried make macd into 0 to 100 scale,
by calculate the relative point against highest and lowest value
in last 40 bars of macd
The shape of macd flattern, NOT the same from original.

Hope someone can give correct path to go

Hi all,

Wow, i was wondering on someone would make such a thread.

This is how i see things : I trade almost entirely between S/R lines with these rules:

 

  1. Touched S/R line, the ones with H1, H4, D1, W1, MN1 (ignore the red and blue zones, they are there because i don't have alerts on my main S/R indicator)
  2. MACD Divergence
  3. Wait for envelope to change trend
  4. Enter trade
  5. Wait for semafor near S/R line to exit trade (Semafor repaints alot, so i ignore it alot of the time)

So basically enter at envelope (if S/R line touched and MACD div) and exit at semafor if near S/R line, If semafor appears
I could try to enter earlier, without waiting for envelope

I hope i didn't make a mess from this screenshot but there are actually just 3 trades there, with some risky bonus trades that could have been possibly that i did not draw all of them in screenshot.


Edit : Added simplified screenshot

That would be a stochastic of MACD,

Put MACD value into a stochastic fonction

For your macd attachment, I would highlight a special way on reverse.
Take a look when macd Signal Crossover macd Histogram
You may get a Zero-lag timing with low confidence.
Especially on correction/rebound against main trend

Hi,

I've read your message 15 times trying to figure out. I'm sorry cowbearcar, my mind is sometimes not so sharp. You where talking about earlier entry. Usually a second indicator is very good, but not to many or trader gets confused of so many mixed signal. I really like how WPR works. So a combination of MACD and WPR i find it very good, of course with on chart S/R.
I've added the H1 chart and also the D1 and Weekly chart screnshots

Forgive my poor English presentation.

I got many separate window indicator combo on investing.
You can do it yourself, just merge those indicator in same window,
clear to see uptrend and downtrend with list of color show.

Well, I would point out that Good strategy make you fast to know what to do.
Buy on uptrend, Sell on downtrend, Don't trade on sideway.
