Technical indicator MACD (moving average convergence divergence) foresees the trend of stocks, indicating trading signals for short and medium term. Furthermore, the crossover helps to gauge the price reversal, suggesting a change in sentiments. If the MACD trades above zero line, it indicates upside and if it slips below the zero line, it means downside.
MACD is a trend suggesting indicator based on two moving averages. The 26-day Exponential moving average is subtracted from 12-day Exponential moving average. A 9-day moving average is plotted to act as a signal line which defines convergence and divergence. As the moving averages get closer, a convergence occurs inevitably depicting a change in a trend. Divergence said to occur when averages trade at a distant range.
MACD, when correlated with other indicators like volumes and candlestick patterns has evolved as a low-risk indicator. As it gets closer to zero line, stocks develop higher volume trades with candlestick patterns indicating the high interest of traders.
