MACD
Moving Average Convergence Divergence — a momentum indicator that measures the relationship between two EMAs (typically 12 and 26 periods). The signal line (9-period EMA of MACD) generates crossover buy and sell signals.
How Sigmentum uses it
MACD has three components: the MACD line (EMA-12 minus EMA-26), the signal line (9-period EMA of the MACD line), and the histogram (MACD minus signal line). A MACD crossover above the signal line is a bullish trigger; below is bearish. Histogram bars show the rate of change of that relationship — expanding bars mean momentum is accelerating; shrinking bars mean it is decelerating. Sigmentum uses MACD alongside RSI as a secondary momentum confirmation rather than a primary signal source.
