Automated Strategy MACD Cross

[smts123]

Hi,

I am trying to create in the wizard an automated strategy to execute trades long or short based on the MACD fast and slow period crossing. Basically when these two lines cross, the histogram shows either above or below zero.

Thank you

Hello smts123,

Thank you for your post.

I created a short video which will outline how to create a condition for the MACD and how that will apply to the wizard.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Thank you so much. It works now!

I was wondering on the order management, I noticed in the wizard it doesn't have trailing or break even options or multiple profit targets. Is that something NinjaTrader will include in the wizard near future?

timeframes

One last question.

How do I set time frames? I see in the wizard Date Value, Time Series, Time Value.

Do I choose Time Value but which qualifier do I use (i.e..>,<,=)

So if I want it to be between 9:30AM (EST) to 10:30AM (EST).....which qualifier should I use?

Thank for your help.

smts123, an example setup for a time filter condition would be seen in the last section here - https://www.ninjatrader.com/support/...on_builder.htm

The time zone would not have to be added in, it would always be your local used one for NT's operations.
