MACD Zero Cross

How this strategy trades, what it scored, and the measurements the score was read from — every symbol and timeframe, on real and resampled history.

  1. Compute the MACD line: the 12-bar EMA minus the 26-bar EMA.
  2. Buy when it crosses above zero. Zero is where the two averages are equal, so this is the 12/26 EMA crossover written another way — the signal line plays no part.
  3. Sell when it crosses back below zero.
