Thanks for sharing! Just make sure to change the settings to 5-Fast, 13-Slow.

UPDATE: I really like how this indicator looks but for some reason can't get the exact same results as the original. So to make it simplier on everyone, I just made changes to the original so that it no longer gives alerts, puts text on the chart, or adds levels other than the '0'. See post below for details.

I have re-programmed the previous MACD to make it very simple and look like the one I am using on my chart. Download it below. I will also make the change to the 1st post to include the indicator.

If im right we are now in 3 long trades, the GBP/JPY, GBP/USD and USD/JPY, soon there will be a crossover of the 2 EMA's on EUR/JPY pair so that its going under my observation

EURUSD is also close to a long cross.

It is dangerous to sell Yen as in Asia inflation it is accelerated can give support of propensity of flight from risk. I think reasonably to sell commodity currencies and to buy Yen.

Thanks for your contribution - I don't argue against your point. However, this system is entirely technical and therefore the assumption is (whether correct or not) that the fundamentals are built into price.

Many of you have probably seen that I am still short the EURJPY in spite of the cross that happened a few hours ago. The purpose of the cross is to help us determine the direction of the mid-term trend. In this case, I believe there is a good chance the cross is temporary.

(Rules are made to be broken)

Price seems to be returning short and the cross actually occurred as price was turning back in the direction of the previous short trend. On top of that, the 50 Fib retracement was hit late last week and so far has held. I will stay in this trade to see if the 50 Fib level breaks. If it does I will await a pullback before exiting and simultaneously re-entering Long.

See my current EURJPY H4 and D1 charts below. Notice how price on the D1 appears to be returning to the trend after a 21 pullback.

Find attached my current GBPUSD chart.

Notice the 21/89 cross long, pullback to 21, and then trend continue?

Maybe post a picture of your chart and I can look to see why you didn't get a signal.

Hi Sburtonhome,

great to be apart of your system and this thread. I have had to close my EUR/JPY Short (111.40)on a 15min long entry confirmation based off your same system on the 4hr. this one looking bullish now. Eye on EUR/USD for possible long signal later today.

Good move on your part. I committed to closing on a pullback to the 21 but in hindsight should have closed earlier. I will stick with my earlier plan hoping this move isn't too strong before the pullback comes :-).

I am currently long on the USDJPY and it is currently on a pullback before it (hopefully) turns and goes back up. I am noticing that the 21 is currently fairly close to the 89 an is pointed down. Could this be a possible precursor to a downward cross of the MA's?

It may be a precursor to a return to the short side or just a pullback to the 89. If you look at the D1 it provides a very different picture. It has not even pulled back to the 21 on the D1 yet and the trend is turning long.

Right on. Makes sense. Do you regularly use the daily chart to help determine the quality of the trade and/or confirm exits and entries?
