Gerald Appel recommends an 8-17-9 MACD to generate buy signals and a 12-25-9 MACD to confirm a sell signal for a stock, which has had a strong bullish move.

I thought I posted that a few times. This is basically the "sell in May and go away" strategy juiced in technical analysis terms. The buy is generated in the Fall in the "bext six months strategy" as outlined in The Stock Trader's Almanac.

Questions:

1. Are they using a daily, weekly or monthly MACD signal?
2. Did it trigger last week (I think it did in any time frame)?
3. Can we chart this ourselves so that we know when the Best Six Months Strategy is about to kick in???
