What Is Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)? Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), developed by Gerald Appel towards the end of 1970s is a momentum indicator that is mostly used by traders to identify trend shifts. This indicator is used to understand the momentum and its directional strength by calculating the difference between two time period intervals, which are a collection of historical time series. A Bullish momentum is identified when the MACD line cross above the signal line. A bearish momentum is identified when the MACD line cross below the signal line.
