Can you check on 11/8/16? It looks like everything had a LONG signal, including both VXX and XIV.

Thanks, Kevin very good eye! I have altered the code to reflect the signal relative to VXX and XIV
only . The other symbols TVIX and VXZ were for my observational purposes only. I have removed
them and only the SPY remains. Again this only signals the VXX and XIV trades. Also a buy on
the VXX signals a sell on the XIV. A buy on the XIV signals a sell on the VXX. I hope this clears
things up a bit.

SafETrade, what a great filter. Thank you. There is no replacement for an additional data point to secure your confidence in a trade.

SAFeTrade, if I want to create the same programming in this filter but look at JDST/DUST versus NUGT/JNUG, would I just change the ETF's? I did try that but the timing seemed off. Thoughts?

I was looking at the same thing as well - I was thinking if the MACD cross was the trigger it would give a more reliable entry/exit signal but I do not know how to code that.

Is this what you had in mind with JNUG/JDST and NUGT/DUST?

SAFeTrade, yes--thank you. Not sure whether you, FOUR, or Kevin from GA should receive the Stockfetcher genius of the year award. This helps so much on entry and exit.
If you were trading DUST and JNUG night-to-night as opposed to a longer swing trade, what specifically would you look at within the chart? The MACD crossover alone? The reason I ask is because DUST and JNUG seem to gap up and down overnight quite often and I am trying to figure out a methodology on how to increase probabilities of catching the nightly gap up.

Awesome
How would you make it keeping the entry trigger as is but the EXIT trigger would be the cross of the macds/macdf?

You would use:
set{macd3, count(macdf crossed below macds,1)}
set{macd0, count(macdf crossed below 0,1)}
draw macd3
draw macd0
add column macd3
add column macd0
You could also try waiting for Macd0 to cross 0, would eliminate whip saws.
