Description: The Relative Moving Average Convergence Divergence (RMAC) is an innovative adaptation of the traditional MACD indicator that helps identify high-probability trade setups by combining trend analysis with dynamic support/resistance levels. Key Features:
Dynamic threshold lines that adapt to recent price action Combines MACD with a signal averaging system to reduce false signals Clear visual signals for both long and short setups Customizable parameters for different timeframes and trading styles
How It Works: The indicator calculates a signal average based on the highest and lowest signal values over a specified period. This creates dynamic threshold lines that help filter out noise and identify stronger trend movements. A trading signal occurs when the signal line crosses and closes above/below these threshold lines while moving in the direction of the overall trend. Parameters:
Signal Average Length: Period for calculating the dynamic thresholds (default: 45) Fast Length: Short-term EMA period (default: 2) Slow Length: Long-term EMA period (default: 20) Signal Smoothing: Smoothing period for the signal line (default: 1) MA Types: Choose between SMA or EMA for both oscillator and signal calculations
Best Practices:
Use in conjunction with overall trend analysis Look for setups where price respects key support/resistance levels Consider volume confirmation at potential entry points More reliable signals typically occur when used on higher timeframes
Limitations:
Like all indicators, RMAC can produce false signals, especially in choppy markets Should not be used as a standalone trading system Past performance does not guarantee future results Backtest thoroughly before using in live trading
