Strategy based on MACD indicator
MACD Trend reacts to crossovers between the MACD line and its signal line. Bullish crosses initiate longs while bearish crosses start shorts. Opposite crosses or a stop close the trade.
The moving-average convergence divergence indicator adapts well to shifting markets by measuring momentum. This approach aims to ride trending swings while the indicator maintains a clear bullish or bearish bias.
