MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence)

  • MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence) is a trend-following momentum indicator. It shows the relationship between two moving averages of a crypto’s price: the 12-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and the 26-day EMA.
  • The MACD line crossing above the signal line suggests a buy, while crossing below suggests a sell, helping traders identify potential entry and exit points.
