Roxana_Signals MACD + vol
Feb 7, 2024

The Roxana_Signals MACD + vol indicator provides trend-following signals by combining standard momentum analysis with a volume oscillator to filter market entries.
Usage
The indicator is used to identify potential entry points based on the confluence of price momentum and volume strength. Signals are plotted directly on the chart:
- Long Entry: Indicated by a green upward triangle below the bar. This occurs when the MACD line crosses above the zero line while the volume oscillator remains positive, suggesting bullish momentum is supported by increasing volume.
- Short Entry: Indicated by a red downward triangle above the bar. This occurs when the MACD line crosses below the zero line while the volume oscillator remains positive, suggesting bearish momentum is supported by volume expansion.
The script includes built-in alert functionality for long, short, and combined signals, allowing for automated notifications or integration with third-party trading bots.
Details
The script functions by evaluating two primary components:
- MACD Momentum: It calculates the Moving Average Convergence Divergence using fast and slow exponential moving averages (or simple moving averages depending on settings). The zero-line crossover is used as the primary trend trigger.
- Volume Oscillator: It calculates the percentage difference between a short-term and a long-term volume EMA. By requiring the volume oscillator to be above zero, the script ensures that signals are only generated when shorter-term volume is outpacing the longer-term average, indicating higher participation.

FAQ
