The current implementation of the MACD is based on this step:
- Calculate divergence between them (Short - Long) (This is the MACD)

When the MACD passes the 0-line there is a crossover of the MA lines and then a signal is given by the indicator.

This is the implementation running right now. First i want to get things fully working without bugs and then i am planning on adding more and more indicators. One of them will be called "MACD-MA Cross-over" and that one will work as you have described, based on an smooth MACD cross-over momentum.

About the suggestions;
- Yes i will add the fee to the benchmark tool, at this moment it is still missing because my focus was on other things. But good thing you remind me of this.
- Transaction fees are up to date with the new version. I am polling them on a bigger interval, but it is polled and updated at the next version.
- Loading historical data from the internet is a feature i really want to add, but again my focus was on other things. I will rush this feature for the version after the next version.
- I will investigate the "Trailing Stop-Loss", at this moment i am working on a equal concept that monitors if the order gets filled and if not after X time then it will cancel the order. This this is stuff coming in the future. Maybe the Trailing Stop-Loss is better, i will have a look for sure. Thanks!

@nowywbitcoinowymswiecie:
Sorry, but i will never rush a release or do a pre-release. Sometimes i will do a Alpha release, but that is for big changes to the trade-engine only. I can understand people may want this version already, but if it does not work as expected or if it makes wrong trades then i will get a lot of complains. I can better avoid that and make sure first everything works first.

Thanks for the answers!

I'm glad you will add MACD as I described as well. It's a bit strange tho, that you call your current implementation MACD while it truly isn't. I would personally call the current implementation MA-Crossover and the implementation I suggest MACD, but it's your call obviously.

Also I'm very happy to see that you are working on order monitoring. In my opinion it is essential!
