Macd Williams R Strategy (Python Version)

Strategy based on MACD and Williams %R indicators. Enters long when MACD > Signal and Williams %R is oversold (< -80) Enters short when MACD < Signal and Williams %R is overbought (> -20)

MACD indicates the larger momentum shift, while Williams %R pinpoints near-term reversals. Both signals must line up to initiate a trade.

Good for those who like to combine trend and countertrend cues. Stops hinge on an ATR factor.
