MACD Printer

Most traders run MACD in a sub-window. It sits below the chart, they glance down at it, try to read the histogram height and signal line position, and then look back up at the price. The information is there, but it's disconnected from the place where trading decisions are actually made — the candlestick chart.

MACD Printer puts the MACD directly on the candles.

Every bar gets a number. Blue means the MACD is bullish and positive. Orange means it's bearish and negative. White means it's neutral. You never need to look down at a sub-window again — the momentum reading is already printed right next to every candle you're looking at.

✦ MACD values printed on every candle — see the exact pip reading at every bar, directly on the price chart

✦ Three trend states, color-coded — blue for up trend, orange for down trend, white for no trend — instant at a glance

✦ Any reference timeframe — print D1 MACD values on an H1 chart, or H4 values on M15 — your choice

✦ Configurable MACD parameters — use your preferred fast/slow/signal settings, not a forced default

✦ Minimum difference filter — keeps labels clean during low-momentum, flat-market periods

✦ Toggle each state independently — hide No Trend labels entirely if you only want to see directional momentum

Whether you're filtering entries by higher timeframe MACD state, tracking momentum acceleration bar by bar, or simply want your MACD always visible without a sub-window cluttering your layout — MACD Printer delivers it cleanly, directly on the chart.

"No sub-window. No switching. MACD on every candle."

How It Works

The indicator calculates MACD values using configurable Fast EMA, Slow EMA, Signal, and Shift settings on a selected reference timeframe, then labels each bar on the chart with its current MACD reading in pips:

1. 🔵 Blue / DeepSkyBlue numbers — Up Trend state: MACD is above zero and rising, indicating bullish momentum
2. 🟠 Orange / DarkOrange numbers — Down Trend state: MACD is below zero and falling, indicating bearish momentum
3. ⬜ White numbers — No Trend state: MACD is near zero or within the minimum fast/slow difference threshold, indicating a neutral or non-directional market

Each bar is labeled with its pip value (e.g. 0, 6, 7, 12) directly at the corresponding candlestick, giving you a continuous numerical read of MACD momentum mapped onto price structure without requiring any sub-window.
