the first indicator is the smma ma of high, and the second is the smma ma of low, creating a channel.
the third indicator, lwma ma of weighted, serves as an impulse signal line. the histogram construction method differs from traditional approaches.
the key innovation is the selective display of macd values based on the impulse signal line's position relative to the channel lines. if the impulse line is above the high value, divergence is calculated as the difference between the impulse and high. if it's below the low value, divergence is calculated between the impulse and low. this approach eliminates intermediary movements, focusing on critical price action.
an additional histogram signal line, similar to macd, is included.
the trading strategy is straightforward: open positions only when the histogram and zero line signals cross. if the direction changes, place a trailing stop and wait for the next intersection if a stop is triggered. this strategy leverages the initial price movement impulse for informed trading decisions.
