Description
Impulse MACD Strategy [Enhanced by Aaron]This strategy is built directly on the original "Impulse MACD [LazyBear]" indicator.Original author & script: **LazyBear** (published April 2015)Link: The core Impulse MACD logic — including SMMA on high/low, ZLEMA on HLC3, impulse zone filtering (md calculation), color coding, and signal/histogram — is reused from LazyBear's open-source code with full credit.**Significant enhancements added in this version:**- Converted to a full automated **strategy** with long/short entries- Entries only on valid phase changes after prior extension > user threshold (pullback filter)- Optional SuperTrend trend filter- EMA-based exits + automatic break-even stop after N bars- Entry labels and comprehensive performance stats table (trades, win rate, avg win/loss, net profit)This adds substantial new logic, risk management, and usability beyond the original indicator.Always backtest carefully — no guarantees of future performance. Use at your own risk.Full credit and thanks to **LazyBear** for the innovative Impulse MACD concept that inspired this work.Happy trading!Aaron
