Today, I’m going to share a trading method using the MACD indicator in a “one-of-a-kind” way. It is a collection of diverse techniques, creatively developed solely by my mentor, who goes by the nickname NTC526244 (hereafter referred to as "the author").
Of course, before publishing this full content, I sought the author’s permission and received approval to share it with the community via my blog CaPhiLe.Com. The sole purpose is to provide useful value to Vietnamese traders, helping anyone with the right affinity to absorb and potentially elevate this method to a new level, avoid losing trades, and increase winning probability. Perhaps both the author and I might also receive feedback to further improve the system.
Before diving into the details, let’s establish some important points:
-
The author approached and developed this MACD method as an outsider trader, without delving deeply into the technical inner workings of the indicator. To preserve its original value, I will share it verbatim, keeping all concepts, terminology, and names used in the method. In simple terms, I will not call them "signal line" or "histogram," but instead "red curve" or "blue stripe". The techniques themselves are unusual, “non-theoretical,” derived from practical experience, informal, and hands-on—fully accessible to any trader.
-
Even though I have received this method from the author with full dedication, everyone absorbs, experiences, and applies it differently. Therefore, I cannot guarantee that I transmit 100% of the system’s content, but I will try my best to share its core ideas and principles faithfully.
-
Regarding effectiveness, you can look up the topic "Fxpro Grand Prix Contest #2" on the VangSaiGon forum. Starting with a $200 account, the author (NTC526244) reached over $13,000 in less than a month, a growth of more than 65 times (though eventually lost due to full account exposure)—all using MACD alone. Traders participating in international contests can also search this nickname to find impressive results. For verification, experienced traders on VangSaiGon can confirm these records. The unique fact is that for nearly a decade, the author used only MACD in a unique and unprecedented way, which I now share as MACD-NTC526244.
-
No system is perfect, especially in Forex. Even though this method has proven results, it is not flawless. With a sharing mindset, I transmit this system hoping to receive constructive feedback, which we deeply appreciate.
-
Some readers may find it “ordinary” compared to other systems. But for us—those who have “lived and breathed” MACD for nearly a decade—it is a treasured tool. Please approach with respect and constructive feedback if you have any disagreements.
1. The MACD-NTC526244 Pattern
Simply put, first add the default MACD indicator to the price chart in MT4. It will look like this:
For better clarity, adjust the colors via right-click → Properties. Keep the default periods (12, 26, 9):
-
Main line: Light blue, solid thin line
-
Signal line: Red, solid line
-
Level: Add the 0 line with a dashed light color
This adjusted pattern will be used exclusively for all MACD-NTC526244 techniques.
2. Concepts (Terminology) of MACD-NTC526244
The author uses simple, intuitive names for each component:
-
“Red Curve” (Curve): The curve’s shape is the soul of the method, serving as the key signal for all analysis and predictions.
-
“Blue Stripe” (Stripe): Focus on the tip of each stripe (highest point from zero). Consider its distance and relative position to the Red Curve.
-
“Raised Stripe”: When a stripe reaches a certain height (above or below zero) and crosses the Red Curve from the middle to create a raised stripe. Usually signals a price retracement (temporary or reversal). Some raised stripes may indicate continuation instead, as shown in the first and fourth arrows; the middle two arrows show retracements. This signal suits counter-trend traders.
-
“Accumulated Stripe”: Stripes accumulate outside the curve, moving continuously in the same direction. After 3–4 consecutive candles, this may signal a potential retracement.
-
“Stripe Far from Curve”: Opposite of accumulated stripes. The stripe is between the curve and 0; being far from the curve creates a pull to move closer. This suits trend-following traders.
-
“Edge Touch”: Simply the crossing point of the stripe and curve.
-
“Egg Shape”: Red curve bends toward 0 while stripe tips bend opposite, forming an ellipse-like “egg.” Price may continue in the Red Curve direction or reverse to form a Raised Stripe. Multi-timeframe analysis is crucial here.
-
“Tilt Mark”: Red curve’s consistent curved movement, never forming sharp angles.
-
“Curve Close Lid”: Occurs after the Stripe Far signal; the curve bends back toward the opposite side of 0.
-
“Wave 1, 2, 3…”: Naming the sequential crossings of curve and stripe through 0. It indicates trend strength and affects analysis and predictions.
3. Basic Principles of MACD-NTC526244
-
Curve and Stripe move together: Red Curve and Blue Stripe move parallel, maintaining fixed relative positions. Above 0, stripe above curve; below 0, stripe below curve. Distance creates pull effects: Stripe Far or Accumulated Stripe.
-
Red Curve never bends sharply: Always smooth (parabolic, U, inverted U, tilt mark).
-
Raised Stripe signals potential reversal: ~70% probability of price retracement or reversal. Multi-timeframe analysis is key.
-
Curve far → Edge Touch: Pullback effect to equilibrium creates Edge Touch; may signal reversal.
-
Tilt mark through 0: Price pauses before reversal; careful multi-timeframe analysis required.
-
MACD lag vs. candlesticks: Observe candlestick + MACD simultaneously to perceive lag.
-
Works in all market states: Trend, sideways, or counter-trend.
4. Multi-Timeframe Analysis – The Key
-
Analyze a larger timeframe to confirm main chart signals.
-
Example: USDCAD, H4 timeframe, 4 red lines with Raised Stripes. Only lines 3 & 4 show meaningful retracements. D1 confirms whether H4 signals are supported.
-
Multi-timeframe confirmation increases probability of accurate trading (~80%).
5. Entry and Exit Using Candlesticks
-
Enter trades based on candlestick confirmation at the main timeframe.
-
First 5 candles after signal are optimal for profit.
-
Continue holding depends on MACD at higher timeframe.
-
Example: USDCHF H4, after predicted drop, observe D1 candle to finalize exit.
6. Dynamic Pattern – MACD Internal Configuration
-
On lower timeframe (M1), observe that Red Curve and Blue Stripe continuously adjust as price moves.
-
Only when the candle closes does the pattern finalize.
-
This is referred to as “dynamic shape” or “shape adjustment,” reflecting real-time price changes.
7. Errors – Inherent in Every System
-
Accuracy depends on the trader’s skill and experience.
-
Indicator lag exists; mitigate by feeling the Red Curve.
-
Multi-timeframe analysis errors are common, requiring experience. Example: H1/Bullish, H4/Bullish, D1/Bullish, but W1 strong Sell invalidates earlier frames.
8. Core Techniques
Technique 1: Raised Stripe + Curved Red
-
Signals possible reversal or retracement.
-
Confirm Red Curve curvature and higher timeframe support.
-
Example: EU H4, only the second red arrow is reliable after multi-timeframe analysis.
Technique 2: Egg Shape + Curved Red
-
Red Curve bends forming “egg” with stripe tips.
-
Confirms trend waves (Elliott wave 1→2) and inside-bar formations.
Technique 3: Stripe Far from Curve
-
Trend-following technique.
-
Stripe Far pulls back toward curve, often leading to profitable moves.
-
Other techniques include sideways Red Curve near 0, tilt mark through 0, steep curve retracement, and many unnamed techniques.
-
All techniques rely on Red Curve-Stripe equilibrium and multi-timeframe analysis.
This completes the summary of MACD-NTC526244. While this explanation may cover ~70% of the original method, it is expected to be useful for traders. Practice daily to gain proficiency, or combine with your existing system for better results.
