BMI - MacD Magic Monster

i've made a small change to my MACD and ema's
MACD is now set as 10, 20, 9
Ema's are 5, 12, 26
The 26 ema on the chart is my zero line for the MACD which is set as 20, when the MACD line cross the zero line and price is across the 26 ema this is a warning that MAYBE direction is changing. I use a higher time frame chart for conformation like a 15 or 30 min chart.
I like the ema's set at these settings for now, as time goes by I might change them.
The 12 ema is used to exit trades, once price is determined long or short I will exit a trade when price crosses the 12 ema.
Indicators still lag of course however I'm able to read them all together a bit better. the 5ema acts as the MACD line, I did have this set to 3 however found it to fast on the 1min chart, 5ema seems to be a bit better.
I changed the actual MACD to 10, 20 leaving the signal line at 9. I like to keep a MACD on my charts for reference only.
Longs are only taken when the MACD line is above the MACD zero line, reverse this for short.
I scalp the NQ on 1min charts so there's plenty of scalping to be done sticking to the rules.

Third chart attached, 15min and 1min, you can see that the 15min was moving up and the 1min was in long positing for me to enter, I did jump the gun a bit and this time it paid off.

You don't need a MACD on your chart, while it's a good indicator i find it very frustrating and lags of course, if you like to use an indicator below your chart I use this, It's a 10 and 20 ema, you can of course use this on the chart.
The dotted line is the 20ema and 10 the blue line.
The second chart is a 15min and 5min chart, no MACD indicators which can give you a false reading if you're not experienced reading the thing.
These Ema's are all indicators to help me make a decision, they wont transform a bad decision into a winning trade, they all lag price and price will go where it wants to regardless on any indicator. I believe it's a 50% probilitily with all entries and exits.

There is also something else that I use on my charts that I've been working on.
Notice on this chart there are two 5ema's Dark blue and light blue.
The 5ema dark blue is set to close
The 5ema light blue is set to open.
My reasoning is this, in a long scalp we want to see the close of the bar close above the open of the bar and this to me signifys that the market on the short trend is trending upward, when the closes of bars start to close near the opens or under the open of bars then the short term trend is weakening.
Do the same for shorts.
Here's a vid I made explaing my concepts. I trade NQ.

I should start my therad on this as I have hijacked Blue's BMI - MacD Magic Monster thread and only posted here asking a question.
I started a new thread.
