MACD DiNapoli indicator

Description

DiNapoli MACD indicator is a zone and trigger trading oscillator, developed based on tradition MACD.

In this version you should trade when the cross happen above the zero level for long trades (macd[0]>signal[0] & macd[1]<signal[1] & signal[0]>0), and when the cross happen below the zero level for short trades (macd[0]<signal[0] & macd[1]>signal[1] & signal[0]<0)

In upper timeframes the same signal conditions you can use as a trade zone.

The following picture shows two cases of buying and selling triggers
