| Weak Long | When the MACD line is below the average line and above zero and Cross always strong is not checked, OR the MACD line is above the average line and below zero and Cross always strong is checked |
| None | Never |
| Weak Short | When the MACD line is above the average line and below zero and Cross always strong is not checked, OR the MACD line is below the average line and above zero and Cross always strong is checked |
