This oscillator is MQL5 version of ZeroLag MACD indicator, published in Russian section of MQL4 CodeBase.

This indicator provides a signal few bars earlier, compared with standard MACD and its divirgence is much more clear.

ZeroLag MACD 

Calculation:

ZeroLAG MACD(i) = (2*EMA(Close, FP, i) - EMA(EMA(Close, FP, i), FP, i)) - (2*EMA(Close, SP, i) - EMA(EMA(Close, SP, i), SP, i));

ZeroLAG MACD Signal(i) = 2*EMA( ZeroLAG MACD(i), SigP, i) - EMA(EMA( ZeroLAG MACD(i), SigP, i), SigP, i);

where:

  • EMA - exponential moving average;
  • Close - close price of the bar;
  • FP - period of fast moving average;
  • SP - period of slow moving average;
  • SigP - period of signal moving average.
