DSL TEMA MACD (MT5)

DSL TEMA MACD combines a TEMA‑based MACD (Triple Exponential MA for faster/cleaner momentum) with DSL (Discontinued Signal Line) logic: only the active side of the band is drawn. This keeps trend‑bias & crossovers cleaner and improves pullback/continuation timing in MetaTrader 5.

What it shows

• MACD (TEMA) — fast/low‑lag momentum core.
• DSL bands — upper/lower lines where only one side is active based on bias.
• (Optional) arrows/alerts — zero‑cross, DSL flips, level/zone events.

Trade ideas

1. Bias via DSL: trade in the direction of the active DSL side; a flip often marks regime change.
2. First pullback after flip: wait for a retracement that respects the bias and take the next momentum expansion.
3. Zero‑line confirmations: prefer entries where TEMA‑MACD crosses zero in the direction of the active DSL.
4. (Optional) Divergence: price prints new high/low while MACD doesn’t — caution; seek confirmation.

Inputs that matter

• Fast/Slow TEMA — momentum speed vs smoothness.
• Signal length — crossover clarity.
• DSL levels — thresholds for bias and alerts.
• Alerts — DSL flip, zero‑cross, zone touches.
• Colors/widths — quick visual read.

Suggested usage

• M5–M15: intraday momentum and pullback entries.
• M30–H4: swing continuations with zero‑line + DSL filter.
• Daily+: portfolio trend filter.
