Moving Average Convergence-Divergence (MACD)

This script implements the Moving Average Convergence-Divergence (MACD), a popular momentum indicator used in technical analysis to identify trend direction, momentum shifts, and potential buy/sell signals.
🔹 Key Features
1. Inputs & Customization
MACD Lines Toggle: Enable/disable the MACD and signal lines.
Source Price: Defaults to close but can be adjusted (e.g., open, high, low, hl2).
Fast Length (12): The period for the faster-moving EMA.
Slow Length (26): The period for the slower-moving EMA.
Signal Length (9): The smoothing period for the signal line.
2. Calculations
Computes the MACD Line (fast EMA - slow EMA).
Computes the Signal Line (EMA of the MACD line).
Computes the Histogram (difference between MACD and Signal lines).
3. Visual Indicators
Zero Line: A white horizontal line at 0 for reference.
MACD Line: Plotted in green when above the signal line, red when below.
Signal Line: Displayed as a yellow line.
Histogram:
Green bars when MACD > Signal (bullish momentum).
Red bars when MACD < Signal (bearish momentum).
Background Highlights:
Light green on bullish crossovers (MACD crosses above Signal).
Light red on bearish crossunders (MACD crosses below Signal).
4. Alerts
Triggers when:
Bullish Crossover (MACD crosses above Signal).
Bearish Crossunder (MACD crosses below Signal).
🔹 How Traders Use This Indicator
Trend Identification:
MACD above zero → bullish trend.
MACD below zero → bearish trend.
Momentum Signals:
Bullish Crossover (Buy Signal): MACD crosses above Signal.
Bearish Crossunder (Sell Signal): MACD crosses below Signal.
Divergence (Not in this script, but useful):
Price makes higher highs, but MACD makes lower highs → Potential reversal.
🔹 Strengths of This Script
✅ Clean and Efficient Code – Uses Pine Script v6 best practices.
✅ Customizable Inputs – Adjust lengths and source price.
✅ Clear Visuals – Color-coded for easy interpretation.
✅ Built-in Alerts – For automated trading strategies.
