MACD_4CZ : 4color up/dn over/under Zero

Hi, guys!

just made (modified) this MACD based on two sources below

can someone check the code if everything allright?

thank you

[piptaker]

alert

Can anyone put an alert on that MACD_4cz for when the color changes?

thx,

todd

Well, below is not 4cz, but it will give any known alert on MACD indicator. But if you insist to have 4 cz, just change

ind_buffer1=iMA(NULL,0,FastEMA,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,i)-iMA(NULL,0,SlowEMA,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,i);

To

ind_buffer1=iMA(NULL,0,FastEMA,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i)-iMA(NULL,0,SlowEMA,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i);

and set "ShowSignalLine" to False

[piptaker]

thanks

a1ra,

Thanks much,

Just what I was looking for and seems to be working just fine.

Well i think i can give this indicator a try. It looks give an accurate about 90% on big TF like H1

a1ra,

THX ! It's brilliant !

Do you know how to:

1. add sound message (*.wav format) not only system alert

2. add price level into e-mail message's content

3. add red/green arrows on the main price chart to better visualize long/short signals (where signal line crosses MACD one).

Once again thank you for your previous efforts !

MACD - Multi-Time Frame - Color request

Can some one add a color into this Multi-Time Frame indicator?

Red color = MACD Below Zero

Green color = MACD Above Zero

Best wishes,

Dave

Hi davidjohny,

I moved your post to this thread where you will find colored MACD indicator.

I think - it is similar with your request but without MTF ...

You can also look at the first posts of this thread
