Comments are welcome. Let us know how you use it, how it works for your trades!


This is how I like to trade this indicator and it is not to be considered trading advise. Many people are asking how I use this indicator so I decided to explain how I personally like you use this. This info is for educational purposes only. This info will be updated to reflect each new version as it evolves:
  • I usually trade in the direction of the MACDBB middle line. The trend label is synced with that and will help keep you in the right direction.
  • I like to see confirmation with the Market Forecast and the trend label. I find a neutral trend is not my friend as it usually will chop me out of profit.
  • The MACDBB Cloud in the original version incorporated the use of Keltner Channel to determine a squeeze, the newer versions employ a new squeeze logic with squeeze dot and alert. A yellow (default) cloud will also appear on the bands when this condition is meet. Price has a tendency to breakout after a squeeze. This is where I like to be set up waiting for an entry. By default the cloud is turned off.
  • The bands when contracted show an area of consolidation or a point of equilibrium. These levels are often areas of supply and demand or support and resistance. When the band is tight and the MACDBB Dotted Line crosses over the top band It is typically a strong move to the up side, just the opposite in the inverse.
  • By default, the alerts crossing for the bands from both directions is set to zero. This tends to be a safer entry of exit point.
  • Some people may want to enter a position upon the MACDBB dotted Line crossing the bands Upper, Lower, Or Middle line. You will have to play with it and figure out what works best for you. The alerts from this will not give you an absolute top or absolute bottom. But serves as a good indication of price aggregation.
  • The RSM cloud in the background are a confluent combination of RSI, STOCASTIC and MACD. When the signals are confluent, they will either be Red or Green by default. When they are not in agreement it is likely you are in inflight turbulence or a change of investor sentiment. By default these are turned off.
  • For my first confirmation of a trade, I watch the MACDBB dots line. Before the line turns grey it should turn dark red or dark green. That’s when I am alerted, I use that as my lead while using this indicator.
  • When the MACDBB dots line turns gray, that is an area of indecision and as soon as that line crosses the MACDBB middle line, I look for secondary confirmation to confirm entry or exit, I do this on entries and exits.
  • For those looking to get a better exit on the RSI_IFT strategy, perhaps this will alert you.
  • Personally with my risk tolerance, I find that when the MACDBB dots line turns gray when I am in a long position and crosses over the upper band, I usually exit my position. I then wait for the pull back or a continuation. I find personally that the commission fee for exiting out ways the 100’s of dollars I risk or lose if the position changes direction at that time. I do the inverse for shorts.

You can take a screenshot with a tool from your operating system, upload to imgur.com and then use the image URL in your reply. There is an image button on the reply toolbar.

It seems like you put 2 indicators in the same lower row. B4 Should be in it's own lower row.

I have only one indicator in the lower row. The sqz and rsm clouds were off i turned them on. When i first copied the script i got an invalid script. i did it again with out the b4 header. Started at declare lower. Every thing seemed fine. Has anyone else had an issue? really want to see how it works.

There is a line plotted at 151. This is not part of the indicator. Could you have may be copied extra lines of script code into it by any chance?

What is 151? I will delete and recopy the script again tonite and see. Can you send me a screen shot of the study settings?

I deleted the indicator. copy and pasted it 2 times still the same. do you have the script to seei f that might work. just frustrating.

I tried it from scratch and it works as expected. Can you post your studies window image?

I will do some work on that this weekend. And try to send the study screen. can we try the script, and see if that works?

Is there a way to add the support 1/2 and resistance 1/2 like on tv on Tos platform? Thanks!
Can you clarify? I do not think what you are referring to is part of the B4 Indicator, but part of another indicator by B4.
 
very promising indicator - thank you for the work and sharing. I am mostly doing stocks swing trading and looking to understand what is the best setting for a move that lasts 3-5 days. I usually use 1hr, 2 hr, 4 hr and day views to find trends but looking to learn from experts.
