This scrip is only meant to be used in 4hour crypto chart <<
How It Works - To swing trade in a 4 hr candles, which has a much larger range than shorter timeframe candles, the script utilizes a longer timeframe ema , sma and MACDs to account for such. When the ema and sma crosses and the rate of change of the MACD histogram is in favor of the direction, then the system provides a long/short signal. How To Use - The script works the best when the signal is in par with other analyses (trend, harmonic patterns , etc.) This script does not provide any exit signals, so I recommend exiting when the candle breaks out of the structure, or other strategies.
Updates or revisions will be recorded in the comments. Good luck with this script!
