Indicators

MACD

Compare two exponential moving averages and their signal line.

What to notice

MACD can show the direction and pace of a trend, while its histogram visualizes the gap between MACD and its signal line.

The context that matters

It is based on past closes and may react late in fast markets. Confirm with price structure.

Common mistake

Mistaking a shrinking histogram for a confirmed reversal.

Try it on a chart

Mark when MACD first cooled and when price actually broke a swing level.
