MACD TAG + MedianMACD TAG and Median with ATR Bands : A Comprehensive Trading Tool
This indicator combines two powerful trading tools: the MACD TAG and the Median with ATR Bands. This synergistic approach provides traders with a multi-faceted view of price action, trend, and volatility, leading to more informed trading decisions.
MACD TAG
The MACD TAG focuses on identifying buy and sell signals based on the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) oscillator. It highlights crossover events between the smoothed MACD line and the signal line, with a configurable threshold to filter out minor fluctuations. A cooldown period prevents rapid-fire signals, ensuring more reliable entries.
Median with ATR Bands
The Median with ATR Bands provides a clear visual representation of the median price and its volatility. It calculates the median price over a specified period, then draws upper and lower bands based on the Average True Range (ATR) and a customizable multiplier. This helps identify potential support and resistance levels. The Median EMA (Exponential Moving Average) indicates the trend of the median price, offering additional insights into the overall market direction.
Combining the Power of Two
By overlaying these two indicators, traders gain a comprehensive perspective:
Trend Confirmation: MACD TAG buy signals within the upper ATR band can indicate strong upward trends, while sell signals within the lower band suggest downward momentum.
Momentum Strength: A MACD TAG signal coinciding with the median price above its EMA strengthens the signal, indicating powerful upward momentum.
Risk Management: The ATR bands can serve as potential stop-loss levels, helping limit potential losses on trades.
Customization and Optimization
This indicator is highly customizable, allowing traders to tailor it to their specific needs. You can adjust the EMA lengths, ATR multiplier, cooldown period, and other parameters to achieve optimal performance.
Medianline
Standardized Median Proximity [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Standardized Median Proximity by AlgoAlpha 🚀📊 – a dynamic tool designed to enhance your trading strategy by analyzing price fluctuations relative to the median value. This indicator is built to provide clear visual cues on the price deviation from its median, allowing for a nuanced understanding of market trends and potential reversals.
🔍 Key Features:
1. 📈 Median Tracking: At the core of this indicator is the calculation of the median price over a specified lookback period. By evaluating the current price against this median, the indicator provides a sense of whether the price is trending above or below its recent median value.
medianValue = ta.median(priceSource, lookbackLength)
2. 🌡️ Normalization of Price Deviation: The deviation of the price from the median is normalized using standard deviation, ensuring that the indicator's readings are consistent and comparable across different time frames and instruments.
standardDeviation = ta.stdev(priceDeviation, 45)
normalizedValue = priceDeviation / (standardDeviation + standardDeviation)
3. 📌 Boundary Calculations: The indicator sets upper and lower boundaries based on the normalized values, helping to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
upperBoundary = ta.ema(positiveValues, lookbackLength) + ta.stdev(positiveValues, lookbackLength) * stdDevMultiplier
lowerBoundary = ta.ema(negativeValues, lookbackLength) - ta.stdev(negativeValues, lookbackLength) * stdDevMultiplier
4. 🎨 Visual Appeal and Clarity: With carefully chosen colors, the plots provide an intuitive and clear representation of market states. Rising trends are indicated in a shade of green, while falling trends are shown in red.
5. 🚨 Alert Conditions: Stay ahead of market movements with customizable alerts for trend shifts and impulse signals, enabling timely decisions.

🔧 How to Use:
- 🎯 Set your preferred lookback lengths and standard deviation multipliers to tailor the indicator to your trading style.
- 💹 Utilize the boundary plots to understand potential overbought or oversold conditions.
- 📈 Analyze the color-coded column plots for quick insights into the market's direction relative to the median.
- ⏰ Set alerts to notify you of significant trend changes or conditions that match your trading criteria.
Basic Logic Explained:
- The indicator first calculates the median of the selected price source over your chosen lookback period. This median serves as a baseline for measuring price deviation.
- It then standardizes this deviation by dividing it by the standard deviation of the price deviation over a 45-period lookback, creating a normalized value.
- Upper and lower boundaries are computed using the exponential moving average (EMA) and standard deviation of these normalized values, adjusted by your selected multiplier.
- Finally, color-coded plots provide a visual representation of these calculations, offering at-a-glance insights into market conditions.
Remember, while this tool offers valuable insights, it's crucial to use it as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, complemented by other analysis and indicators. Happy trading!
