Overview

MACD Signals with Alert System calculates a Hull Moving Average, MACD histogram, three Exponential Moving Averages, Slow Stochastic, and Time Segmented Volume. While plotting the color-coded Hull MA directly on price, it tracks state changes across all underlying indicators—such as Hull direction flips, MACD bright-to-dark histogram shifts, EMA crossovers, Stochastic threshold crossings, and TSV zero-line crosses. Users can independently toggle alerts and adjust lengths for each calculation module.
