    trading strategy based on the concept explained at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmAWVmKN4J0
    author@: Gert Wohlgemuth

    idea:

        uptrend definition:
            MACD above 0 line AND above MACD signal


        downtrend definition:
            MACD below 0 line and below MACD signal

        sell definition:
            MACD below MACD signal

    it's basically a very simple MACD based strategy and we ignore the definition of the entry and exit points in this case, since the trading bot, will take of this already
