MACD and Stochastic Oil Trading Crossover Strategies
From our Moving Averages Crossover, and MACD Crossover Oil Strategy - sell oil trading signal is generated when:
- Stochastic oscillator cross-over & begin moving down
- MACD technical indicator generates a cross over & MACD moves downward below the center line zero mark
The sell oil signal was generated when all these oil crossover trading rules were met. The exit oil signal is generated when a cross-over oil signal in opposite direction is generated.
A buy oil signal would be generated using Stochastic Crossover and MACD Crossover Oil Strategy - buy oil trading signal is generated when:
- Both Stochastics cross-over & start moving upward
- MACD technical indicator generates a cross over & MACD moves upward above center line zero mark
The buy oil trading signal would be generated when all these oil crossover trading rules are met. The exit oil signal is generated when a cross-over oil signal in opposite direction is generated.
The good thing about using such a oil trading strategy - MACD and Stochastics Strategy - is that a trader will be using different types of oil indicators to confirm the oil signals and avoid many oil whipsaws in the process.
- Stochastic Oscillator Indicator - is a momentum oscillator oil technical indicator
- MACD - is a trend following oil technical indicator
It is very important to combine more than one crude oil technical technical indicator when coming up with a oil trading strategy, as a combination of oil trade signals is better than relying on just a one oil technical indicator. The oil indicator combinations reinforce each other's oil crossover signals, and cancel out false whipsaws cross-over trading signals.
A trend following oil indicator helps a trader to interpret overall oil market trend, while at the same time using more than one oil technical indicator gives better and more reliable entry and exit crossover trading signals.

MACD Crossover & Stochastic Crossover Strategy - MACD Crossover & Stochastic Crossover Strategy
For this oil example the oil trend direction is upwards, but at some point there were a few whipsaw signals generated by the stochastic oscillator - & question is how can a trader avoid these oil trading whipsaws?
To avoid oil whipsaws combine two or more oil indicator signals - such as MACD Crossover oil signal to help avoid oil crossover whipsaws, for example the MACD technical indicator had not given a crossover oil signal although MACD indicator was very close to the zero center-line level.
One oil tip is that as long as MACD technical indicator is above zero center-line mark even if the MACD technical indicator lines are heading downwards then the oil trend is still upward. As shown on the crude oil trading example above - MACD technical indicator did not go below the zero center line MACD level and after this the upward oil trend continued and MACD technical indicator was above the zero line mark and the oil market trend direction continued to move upwards.
