Indicator: Schaff Trend Cycle (STC)Another new indicator for TV community :)
STC detects up and down trends long before the MACD. It does this by using the same exponential moving averages (EMAs), but adds a cycle component to factor instrument cycle trends. STC gives more accuracy and reliability than the MACD.

Feel free to "Make mine" this chart and use the indicator in your charts. Appreciate any feedback on how effective this is for your instrument (I have tested this only with BTC).
For people trading BTC:
-------------------------------
Try 3/10 or 9/30 for MACD (fastLength/slowLength). They seem to catch the cycles better than the defaults. :)

Indicator: 4MACD 4MACD allows you to see all facets of the current condition or that of a coming change in one pane. You can see the direction of the current momentum. You can see the initiation of a change; you can then see that change occur as the price and momentum move in an opposite direction.
Note that you still need to use other indicators like BB, OBV for confirmation. More details at www.omniumsoftware.com
BTW, I am not a trader, but a coder. I spend lot of time here at TV and have learnt a lot about how pro-traders think.
This is my way of giving back to TV community. Hope you find this useful (do check out my other indicators). Appreciate any comments / feedback.
