I spiced the standard MACD indicator up a bit to make it more visible.
When using the MACD: 1. Never go short when the MACD lines are in the negative. 2. Never go long when the MACD lines are in the positive. 3. Always wait for an uptick / downtick on the histogram before you start your trade.
The MACD Histogram can also show you Divergence. When the price goes up but the Histogram can't make new highs, it might be a good time to think about shorting.
