Momentum Trading Strategy

Nice argument. However, anything can be made to work, when put together correctly. Nobody gets to say, nobody can get this to work, as you are not everyone else.

It's more accurate and honest to say: I can't get this to work. Never worked for me. I don't want it to work anymore even.

Or, keep on with the dick-swinging contest, that's entertaining too ;)

I didn't say wether it works well though! :p
 
Try again, this time with the Macd 0-line cross, not the regular Macd signal line cross.
LOL, why not just look at the price?

When I first started trading I had an old guy for a mentor. He used MACD, but only as an aid, he never waited for a cross. He looked at the price. He was always setting alerts based on price. One day I asked him why he used MACD and he proceeded to put a bunch of indicators up...they all looked the same.

EDIT: The old guy wasn't Scat :)

Best to use only one moving average at start. Just watch price as it moves over the line. The reason price moves above or below the moving average is momentum. Increased momentum equates to higher price. The apposite occurs with decreased momentum. Just remember the smaller the moving average the higher the noise, meaning you want a moving average that will repel price once on it or over it. Try this for a month tell me what you see.
 
So wait a minute here. moving average crossovers dont work but the MACD zero line cross does?
think about that......
What is the zero crossover? rhetorical, who cares.
