MACD Alerts

From Timetotrade

(Redirected from MACD)

You can use timetotrade to set up MACD Alerts to let you know when your investment conditions are met.

If you're away from your computer, timetotrade will watch the markets for you. As soon as your alert conditions are met this will trigger an email or SMS text alert to be sent to your pc or mobile phone.

Create and customise your own alerts using price and technical indicator triggers:

Simple, intuitive "point and click" system - no programming required.

You can even build compound Alerts which will be triggered if a series of events occurs, for example you could create an alert on a stock that will trigger if: the MACD rises above zero and then crosses over; or the stochastic rises above 80 and the MACD falls below the smoothed MACD; or the RSI of a stock was to fall below 70, followed by a price pull back and a stochastic crossover.

timetotrade watches the markets, so you don't have to. Use timetotrade to avoid missing trading opportunities, regardless of how busy you are ...when it's time to trade we'll let you know!

How to Set Up MACD Alerts

To create an alert, go to the timetotrade Charts page >> and enter the ticker symbol for the stock or currency pair that you wish to follow. This will take you to the alert creation page. The system is defaulted to show the Price chart with the Stochastic chart below, but once you have set up a timetotrade account you can select your own default settings. To create MACD Alerts, select MACD from the drop down menu.

On timetotrade's MACD chart, the MACD is represented by a dark green line and the Smoothed MACD by a red line.

There are six types of MACD Alert Triggers available on the timetotrade system (as shown in the diagram below):

MACD Cross-Over Alerts - used to notify you if the MACD crosses above or below the Smoothed MACD
Rising & Falling Threshold Alerts - used to notify you if the MACD rises above or falls below a certain value
Break Out and Pull Back Alerts - used to notify you if the MACD's value changes by a certain amount within a specified period.

To create an alert, just click on the Alert Trigger Buttons to the right hand side of the MACD chart. There are no programming languages to learn, no macros or complex forumulas for you to write. Just click a button, enter your parameters, "activate", and your alert is created. Simple!

MACD Rising Alerts

To create an alert that will be triggered and notify you when the MACD rises above a certain value, just click the MACD "Rising Threshold" Trigger button:

A text box will appear below the MACD chart.

Step 1: Input the value you wish to be alerted that the MACD has risen above

Step 2: Click the "add trigger" button

Step 3: Enter the alert message you wish to receive

Step 4: Click the "activate" button.

And that's it! Your alert is created. It really is that simple.

The next time the MACD rises above your pre-defined value, you will receive an alert to your email, instant messanger or cell phone.

You can customise the alerts further to suit you: for example you can edit the alert message you will receive, add additional alert trigger conditions, set the alert to re-activate itself once triggered and amend which email or mobile phone you would like the alert sent to.

MACD Falling Alerts

To create an alert that will be triggered and notify you when the MACD falls below a certain value, just click the MACD "Falling Threshold" Trigger button, input the value you wish to be alerted that the MACD has fallen below, click the "add trigger" button and "activate" and customise the alert as discussed above.

The next time the MACD falls below your pre-defined value, you will receive an alert to your email, instant messanger or cell phone.

MACD Crossover Alerts - Positive

To create an alert that will be triggered when the MACD (dark green line) rises above the Smoothed MACD(red line), just click on the "Positive Crossover" Trigger button, as shown below:

As before, click "add trigger" and "activate". The next time the MACD crosses above the Smoothed MACD you will be notified by an alert sent to your email, instant messanger or cell phone.

Again, you can customise the alert to suit you: for example you can edit the alert message you will receive, add further alert trigger conditions and amend which email and/or mobile phone you would like the alert sent to.

MACD Crossover Alerts - Negative

To create an alert that will be triggered and notify you when the MACD (dark green line) falls below the Smoothed MACD (red line), just click the "Negative Crossover" Trigger button, and activate and customise the alert as discussed above.

The next time the MACD crosses below the Smoothed MACD, you will receive an alert to your email, instant messanger or cell phone.

MACD Break-Out Alerts

To create an alert that will be triggered and notify you when the MACD increases by a certain value, just click the MACD "Break-Out" Trigger button, input the value you wish to be alerted that the MACD has increased by, and activate and customise the alert to suit.

The next time the MACD increases by your pre-defined value within a specified time interval, you will receive an alert to your email, instant messanger or cell phone.

MACD Pull-Back Alerts

To create an alert that will be triggered and notify you when the MACD falls by a certain value, just click the MACD "Pull-Back" Trigger button, input the value you wish to be alerted that the MACD has fallen by, activate the alert and customise to suit.

The next time the MACD falls by your pre-defined value within a specified time interval, you will receive an alert to your email, instant messanger or cell phone.

One-Click Alerts

The "one-click" double arrow buttons beside the Cross-Over Alert Trigger Buttons are used to immediately create an alert in one-click for either the Postive or Negative MACD Cross-Over triggers, using timetotrade's system default settings.

If you use the "one-click" button, the alert is instantly activated - there is no need to manually activate.

Adjusting the Parameters

You can adjust the MACD default time and interval parameter values to find the best fit between price movement and the MACD indicator to suit.

To change the standard deviation or period parameters enter your preferred values into the parameter text box, then press the keyboard 'enter' button to update the charts. To save your settings, click on the 'set default' button at the bottom of the screen.

Compound Alerts

timetotrade can also be used to create alerts on Price and Volume as well as the technical indicators: Stochastic, RSI, Bollinger Bands and Moving Averages.

Once you are familiar with creating basic alerts you can use timetotrade's advanced features to customise your alerts to suit you. You can build compound alerts containing multiple trigger conditions against price and multiple technical indicators; for example: you could set up rule that will trigger an alert to be sent to you when the share price falls below a defined value followed by the stochastic increasing above 20 and a positive MACD crossover.

You can also edit the alert message you will receive and you can specify where particular alerts are to be sent - to your email and/or mobile phone or PDA.
