MACD News: Taking a Closer Look at Edap Tms Sa ADR (EDAP) – Nelson Research

Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a trend-following momentum indicator that helps illustrate a relationship between two differing moving averages. MACD is calculated by subtracting the twenty-six-day exponential moving average (EMA) from the twelve-day EMA. A signal line, the nine-day EMA of the MACD, is then plotted atop the MACD, acting as a trigger for both buy and sell signals. The first method to interpret MACD is Crossovers. When the MACD falls underneath the signal line, it is bearish, meaning that it is probably the right time to sell. When the MACD goes above the signal line, the indicator is bullish, meaning that the price of the asset is most likely going to experience upward momentum swing. The second method is Divergence. When the price of the security diverges from the MACD, it signals the end of the current price trend. Finally, there is the Dramatic Rise, where the MACD experiences a dramatic rise, the signal indicates overbought status and could possibly soon return to more normal levels.
