MACD Indicator - a trend oscillator used to identify reversal points and trend changes.

MACD Chart

MACD operates using three bands, with lengths of 12, 26, and 9.

Exponential moving averages of 12 and 26 periods form the MACD line.

The 9-period band forms the Signal line.


MACD strategy - if the MACD line crosses the Signal line from below upwards, it's a signal for a long trade. If it crosses from above downwards, it's a signal for a short trade.
