MACD With Colored Histogram And 2 Lines

Hi,

I'm searching for the traditional MACD indicator for metatrader with macd line, signal line and histogram plotted together, and with ascending histogram bars colored in green and descending bars in red. I think this is the most useful MACD indicator but I couldn't find it for metatrader. I attach a sample taken from OANDA.
I have OSMA indicator with histogram bars colored in green or red when ascending or descending and MACD indicator with 2 lines (macd and signal); so I tried to put both indicators on the same window and create the MACD indicator I want. But this solution didn't work because the zero axis of both indicators is plotted within different scales.

Any solution or help is appreciated.

Thanks.

did you have any luck finding this? I only see it in oanda but would quite like it in nijatrader. I like the changing colors of the histogram.

Hi

I can only offer you a MACD with 2 lines and histgram but histogram does not change colour.

Hi im also looking for this indi, search all forums and goggle but can still not find it. I found one called 3colour macd but the bars are of the macd and not the momentum histogram. If any one can dig this out would be much appreciated.

Hello Fxpig,

Thanks for your support. I downloaded your MACD_OsMA_4ColorH_2LVar_mtf from this thread but after applying it on my chart, it doesn't come up with anything. I even deleted and redownloaded it but its still the problem. Kindly help please.

Thanks in anticipation.

Here is a screenshot of how it shows on my chart.

The mq4 file will not work with the newer MT4 builds greater than build 600, you will need the ex4 file only in your indicator folder.

I have re-posted this indicator as I have noticed the colors were wrongly displayed when using the MTF function.

Correct - that is because it has automatic histo width code so the code will automatically resize for every time you zoom in and out on a chart.
