-- IQOW Vortex MACD v1.0.0
--
-- Combines the Vortex Indicator (21) with MACD (12, 26, 9), as in the related
-- article. A VI+ / VI- cross shows the dominant price movement changing side; the
-- MACD line against its signal line checks that momentum agrees. The article
-- suggests period 21 or 34 on a 5-minute chart; 21 is the default here. The
-- chart shows the Vortex lines; the MACD condition is part of the rule only.
--
-- HIGHER: VI+ crosses above VI- while the MACD line is above its signal line.
-- LOWER:  VI+ crosses below VI- while the MACD line is below its signal line.
--
-- Markers use the previous completed candle: they appear after the next candle
-- opens and are shifted back one bar onto the candle that qualified.
-- Educational chart tool only. It does not place trades, choose an expiry,
-- predict outcomes, or guarantee results. Test on a Practice balance first.
