Introduction to Learning BullScript

Language Overview BullScript is a functional programming language that is used to define indicators and alerts. It is similar to some spreadsheet languages. The language is made up of functions, such as ma() and atr(), and mathematical operations like +, -, *. BullScript is not case sensitive, meaning that it […]

MACD

Moving Average Convergence Divergence The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) from the 12-period EMA. The result of that calculation is the MACD line. A nine-day EMA of the MACD called the signal line, is then plotted on top of the MACD line, which can function as a trigger for buy and sell signals. Source: MACD […]
