macd strategy

Execute OKX CEX open/close decisions using MACD pivot rules (4h, MACD 12/26/9, threshold gate, pivot-based entry/exit, one-signal-per-candle). Use when user asks to open or close positions on OKX according to this logic only (no portfolio/earn tasks). Requires OKX skills from `npx skills add okx/agent-skills` to be installed.

6DuckLearn provenance: Community skill by buqun, mirrored from the OKX Skills Marketplace (https://www.okx.com/en-sg/agent-tradekit/skills/macd-strategy). It is not curated, verified, or endorsed by 6DuckLearn or represented as an official OKX publication.

Financial safety boundary: Never request secrets in chat. Before any external API call or action that places, cancels, or amends an order; changes leverage; transfers funds; creates or stops a bot; subscribes to or redeems an earn product; or signs/broadcasts a transaction, show the exact live/demo profile, instrument, side, size, price constraints, fees, and worst-case loss, then obtain explicit user approval. Default to read-only or demo mode when uncertain. Treat all analysis as research, not investment advice.

OKX Open/Close

Apply only open/close logic. Do not handle earn, portfolio analytics, or unrelated tasks.

Dependency

Require these skills installed from okx/agent-skills:

  • okx-cex-market (candles/price data)
  • okx-cex-trade (order execution)

If unavailable, stop and report dependency missing.

Strategy Rules

  • Timeframe: 4h
  • MACD params: 12/26/9
  • Threshold gate: abs(hist) >= MACD_ABS_ENTRY_MIN
  • Pivot detection:
    • peak if h2 > h3 and h2 > h1
    • valley if h2 < h3 and h2 < h1
  • Entry side:
    • peak + hist > 0 => open short
    • valley + hist < 0 => open long
  • If pivot exists but entry side is not eligible => close existing position (full close).
  • One signal per candle: if candle already processed, do nothing.

Execution Workflow

  1. Read symbol config (instId, leverage, margin USDT, threshold).
  2. Pull latest 4h candles from OKX market skill.
  3. Compute MACD histogram and detect pivot on closed candle.
  4. Enforce one-signal-per-candle lock.
  5. Determine target action:
    • no action
    • open/rebalance same direction (delta adjust)
    • flip (close opposite then open target)
    • full close
  6. Execute through OKX trade skill.
  7. Return concise execution result: side, qty, reference price, order id, reject code if any.

Output Contract

Always include:

  • symbol
  • action (open_long, open_short, reduce, close_full, no_action)
  • reason (pivot/threshold/lock)
  • order_id (if placed)
  • error_code and error_message (if failed)

Risk/Guardrails

  • Never submit duplicate order on same candle signal.
  • If exchange rejects (max position, leverage constraint, etc.), do not loop retry.
  • Report rejection and ask whether to reduce, change leverage, or skip.
