_SECTION_BEGIN("MACD Divergence");
//
// MACD divergence system
//
// This system detects MACD and MACD-H positive and negative divergences, and
// crossovers.
// This indicator/expansion is based completely on indicators/explorations
written
// by other AFL contributors, all of them much cleverer than me. There is very
// little original work here.
// As an indicator, it displays the usual MACD and MACD-H indicators. It also
// displays a shape indicating where a divergence or crossover occurs.
// As an exploration, simply select n = 1, define the stock universe to be
// examined, and press the "Explore" button. The detected stocks are listed
// together with a red/green color-coded indication of the divergence or
// crossover
// Several parameters can be configured, including the minimum divergence and
// histogram widths. Configure to suit your own requirements.
// This is still a work in progress, so if you have any suggestions or improvements,
// please let me know via the forum.
