Trading Indicators and strategies

Hi all, my bot has been trading for a while now on Binance using simple moving averages. I would like to upgrade my strategies with a MACD but this indicator is quite difficult to code. Anyone already have this running or have any suggestions how I could learn to code this? @ivan @filip? Thanks in advance.

You could probably use this, if you have node.

Thanks Filip, I’ll try!

Hi Filip,

Sorry to disturb you with some noobs questions.
I’ve tried the link you gave me but I was having troubles using Babel to convert the import code so I used this instead https://www.npmjs.com/package/ta-lib.macd

Looks a lot more usable but still having troubles pulling out the macd and signalLine when I import the module. What should I add to this code to pull out these values?

Thanks in advance.

This is the code:

var ema = require(‘ta-lib.ema’)

var macd = (values, fastPeriod = 12, slowPeriod = 26, signalPeriod = 9)=> {
if (Number.isFinite(fastPeriod) && Number.isFinite(slowPeriod) && fastPeriod > slowPeriod) throw new Error(‘SlowPeriod should be greater than fastPeriod!’)

var macd = [],
slowEMA = [],
fastEMA = [],
signalLine = [],
histogram = []

fastEMA = ema(values, fastPeriod)
slowEMA = ema(values, slowPeriod)

for (var i = 0; i < slowEMA.length; i++) {
macd.push(fastEMA[i] - slowEMA[i])
}

signalLine = ema(macd, signalPeriod)

for (var j = 0; j < macd.length; j++) {
histogram.push(macd[j] - signalLine[j])
}

return {macd, signalLine, histogram}
}

module.exports = macd

Hello did you get it fixed please?

David
