Master MACD
1. What is Master MACD indicator?
MACD:
Moving average convergence/divergence (MACD, orMAC-D) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two exponential moving averages (EMAs) of a security’s price. The MACD line is calculated by subtracting the 26-period EMA from the 12-period EMA.
The result of that calculation is the MACD line. A nine-day EMA of the MACD line is called the signal line, which is thenplotted on top of the MACD line, which can function as a trigger for buy orsell signals.
Traders may buy the security when the MACD linecrosses above the signal line and sell—or short—the security when the MACD linecrosses below the signal line. MACD indicators can be interpreted in several ways, but the more common methods are crossovers, divergences, andrapid rises/falls.
Indicator Vault Master MACD:
The Master MACD indicator incorporates a FASTER, more adaptive kind of moving average – the Hull MovingAverage – in its algorithm. And because of this, Master MACD reactsfaster to market changes.
That way, it lets you enter the trend withnear-perfect timing. It helps you identify explosive breakout moves withgreater accuracy. And it spots divergences and market reversals earlier thantraditional indicators.
Hull Moving Average:
The main difference between the HMA and theother moving averages is that it responds to price changes quicker and can helpconfirm a trend or signal a price change at the right time.
While the HMA might be the most responsive,lag-resistant, it can experience whipsaws more often than the other movingaverages.
