The MACD. One of the most installed trading indicators of all time. Dominating the indicator game with highly effective indications of high momentum in a market, but does it actually make money?
In this video, I spent 30 hours researching everything there is to know about the MACD. Tips, tricks, strategies, backtesting, and even going as far as to see what the optimal settings are for MACD. The results were pretty surprising...Enjoy!

The lesson from this is to stop over optimizing your strategies. Just follow the EMA crossovers and support resistance on longer time charts and you should be ok. Else be a broker

@johnvargas1159 Год назад

Do the stochastic oscillator? Is it the same to the RSI ?

This is my second time watching this video. The degree, scope and complexity of the MACD with Histogram is a study in and of itself. Having a the ability to view this indicator along with the candlestick chart and V-wap gives a much clearer picture of what your jumping into. This is pretty key. It's pretty key if you want to scalp options. This is all great information to go into the trade with.

Thank you for the free content, i learned alot from your videos. There is however a flaw in the description of the MACD in this video i believe you got mixed up. at 1:23 you explain the two lines as the 12 EMA and the 26 EMA. This is incorrect. The first line, the "MACD line" is the 12 EMA minus the 26 EMA. The second line is simply a 9day EMA of the MACD Line called the signal line. Again thank you for the content.

i think you should point out how amazing the strategy worked for several decades, short macd was at 1000 when sp500 was at 10, and for long all the way from 1930 to 2000 had outperformed SP500, as it is VERY UNLIKELY that someone has a 90 year sample size or even trades for that many years i think you should adress how amazing it was until 2000 :) thx for the video

It worked well in earlier years because inflation was much lower. Now, gold is worth more and usd is worth less because of inflation, so the results make sense.

SIR, When swing trading forex with support/resistance what is reliable time chart to use for S/R levels--is it 4 hour OR 1 hour chart? I would think that 1H ,S/R levels are going to get easily violated if trading is against trend on 4H/Daily chart. Of course entry can be made even on 15 M chart BUT ENTRY HAS TO BE IN THE HIGHER TIME FRAME DIRECTION--I seek your experience.

@re2590 Год назад

Usually you make informed decisions depending on what graph looks best. You don't just go plotting random snr lines especially on lower time frames. So usually you look the best (non chaotic chart) wether that's 4h or daily, and then plot the snr and trade on LOWER time frames that you are able to keep up with.

@actrambley21 2 года назад

RSI would be nice, and then maybe you could try and combine things like the MACD and the RSI as I feel like most normal traders use those in conjunction.

@re2590 Год назад

@@Crystal_G_1989 50 is the middle ground lol. Most RSI Settings are 30-50-70. Above 50 and bouncing off of a 50 RSI is usually an uptrend. Rebounding downwards from 50 to 30 is usually a downtrend. Above 70 is usually over bought and a reversal is likely. Below 30 is over sold and an uptrend is likely. Buy at 30 sell at 50, sell at 70 and take profits at 50. Simple really

@navketan1965 Год назад

Sir, Regarding Daily or 4 hour S/R(support/resistance) levels, Forex --do these levels deflect price 60% of times?--and if so why not put standing orders at the start of each day in few currencies(each order with take profit & stop loss) and let the statistical edge play out. It may be safer to just work with daily S/R levels but 4 H levels would give many more executions. And if one happens to be watching price action at the level LIVE then combine it with overbought/oversold stochastics/cci to confirm price deflection chances. Yes Higher time frame for direction. Any comments/suggestions?
