true macd vs mt4 macd
All use macd = MA(fast) - MA(slow) and signal = MA(macd)
mt4 uses EMA(f/s, appliedPrice) and SMA(macd) others may allow different types of MAs
mt4 displays two lines macd/signal. Some display a histogram of macd instead of a line and others display the two lines and a histogram of the difference.

I know this was discussed before but I wanted to ask about the macd indicator included in mt4
I clearly see the indicator does not display the crosses at the same locations as the typical macd indicators in all other charts.
I understand there have been truemacd replacements for this but wondered why ?
MT4 macd can be set to display on close,open,low,high and other settings.
What should the typical setting be ?
So the question is can the macd included with MT4 be adjusted to display the typical or true macd ? and if so what are the settings ?
Thanks
