🎯 Overview
The MTF MACD 4-Color Momentum System is an advanced MACD indicator that provides crystal-clear momentum visualization through an innovative 4-color state system. Unlike traditional MACD indicators that only show positive/negative values, this indicator identifies four distinct market states to help traders make more informed decisions.
📊 Key Features
1. Four-State Color System:

🟢 Lime: Above zero + Rising (Strong Bullish Momentum)
🟢 Dark Green: Above zero + Falling (Weakening Bullish Momentum)
🔴 Red: Below zero + Falling (Strong Bearish Momentum)
🔴 Maroon: Below zero + Rising (Weakening Bearish Momentum)

2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:

View higher timeframe MACD on lower timeframe charts
Confirm trends across multiple timeframes
Reduce false signals with multi-timeframe confluence

3. Flexible Display Options:

💡 How to Use
