MACD with Parabolic SAR

Parabolic SAR is more popular for setting stops than for establishing direction or trend.
Parabolic SAR is base on the following rule: to shift the levels of closing prices only in direction of opened position.

If there is a long position opened before, it is possible to increase the level of closing prices, but not to decrease it.
If the short position is opened, it is possible to decrease the level of closing prices.
The indicator can be very effective if a filter of some sort is used like MACD.
