Hi - new to coding WLP, please bear with me. I've copied the MACD code from the wiki, and am executing it on THRM 10min intervals over 3 wks. It seems to miss some major buy signals. For example, at 5-16 15:10 there is a crossover right before a large upswing. MACD=0.0649, and EMA of MACD=0.0555, yet there is no buy signal. Last buy signal was at 5-15 13:20.

Another one is missed at 5-21 12:50, MACD=0.1105, EMA of MACD=0.1032. These both happen to be critical buys, so total performance winds up being pretty poor.

Any explanation or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Carefully reading the comments in this example code, one can notice that a signal to buy is only accepted by the system when MACD crosses its signal line and MACD is below 0. All other cases are ignored. MACD=0.0649 and MACD=0.1105 are above 0, invalidating the setup.

Consequently, modify these lines if you want to disable that condition:

Thanks, I didn't see that.
