It is the Moving Average Convergence Divergence. It is made by to differente MA with different periods and it is used as a signal for entry points. When the one of the two lines (the fast one) cross over the slow one and stays above a signal to buy and when the fast line crosses the slow line and stays below is a signal to sell.
-
The MACD is zero centered and RSI goes from 0 to 100. The MADC shows the smooth price line in different periods of times and the RSI if the coin or stock is overbought or oversold (first case over 70 and 2nd below 30). Both may indicate possible entry points.
-
OBV uses volume to confirm trends. A rising price should be accompanied with a rising OBV and vice versa. When this not happens it may indicate that the price may be reaching a top or it may be close to the bottom, this may indicate possible entry points.
What is MACD and how is it used?
The moving average convergence divergence (MACD)
One basic MACD strategy is to look at which side of zero the MACD lines are on in the histogram below the chart. If the MACD lines are above zero for a sustained period of time, the stock is likely trending upwards. Conversely, if the MACD lines are below zero for a sustained period of time, the trend is likely down.
Using this strategy, potential buy signals occur when the MACD moves above zero, and potential sell signals when it crosses below zero.
Signal line crossovers can also provide additional buy and sell signals. A MACD has two linesâa fast line and a slow line. A buy signal occurs when the fast line crosses through and above the slow line. A sell signal occurs when the fast line crosses through and below the slow line.
What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
The relative strength index (RSI) is another oscillating indicator but its movement is contained between zero and 100 so it provides different information than the MACD.
What is OBV and how is it used?
Volume itself is a valuable indicator, and on-balance volume (OBV) takes a significant amount of volume information and compiles it into a single one-line indicator. The indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on âupâ days and subtracting volume on âdownâ days.
If OBV is rising and the price isnât, itâs likely that the price will follow the OBV in the future and start rising. If the price is rising and OBV is flat-lining or falling, the price may be near a top. If the price is falling and OBV is flat-lining or rising, the price could be nearing a bottom.

What is MACD and how is it used? is a technical analysis indicator that varies over time within a band (above and below a centerline; the MACD fluctuates above and below zero. It is both a trend-following and momentum indicator.)
-
What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
MACD is a trend indicator and momentum indicator, RSI shows if the asset is oversold and due for a correction, or if its due for a bounce. -
What is OBV and how is it used? volume information and compiles it into a single one-line indicator. The indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on âupâ days and subtracting volume on âdownâ days.

What is MACD and how is it used?
Moving average convergence divergence helps indicate short term momentum. -
What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
A MACD helps traders quickly spot increasing short term momentum, while an RSI will show the magnitude of recent price changes. -
What is OBV and how is it used?
On balance volume, it measures volume on both up days and subtracting volume on down days all combined into a single one line indicator.

MACD is the Moving Average Convergence Divergence that helps identify if a trend might be accelerating. MACD consists of two moving averages of differing time frames. When the two lines cross over each other, traders use this as a potential entry signal. When the fast line crosses over and through above the slow line that indicates to buy. When the fast line crosses over and through below the slow line that indicates to sell. Also another MACD strategy is the placement of the lines in relationship to zero. If the MACD is above for a sustained period of time indicates an upward trend. If the MACD lines are below zero for an extended period of time then that indicates a downward trend.
-
The difference between the MACD and RSI is that MACD is graphical and RSI (Relative Strength Index) is numerical. MACD interprets line movement, while RSI is an indicator based on whether a number is above 70 or below 30. Above 70 means a price is overbought and due for a correction; below 30 a price that is oversold and due for a bounce.
-
OBV On-Balance Volume is combination of volume information in one line graph. It is used to confirm price trends by measuring cumulative buying and selling pressure.
1- MACD is an oscillating indicator that is used for trend following and momentum indication. A buy signal occurs when the fast line crosses through and above the slowline. A sell signal occurs when the fast line crosses trough and below a slowline.
2- RSI movement is contained between 0 and 100 and provide information about if the market is overbought or oversold. Is not very time accurate on trend signals.
3- OBV is a volume indicator that takes a significant amount of information and complies it into a single line indicator. Ideally, the volume should confirm trends. So we can use this indicator to check if the volume is following the price (if the price makes sense).
-
MACD stands for Moving Average Convergence Divergence. It is used to analyse the difference between two exponential moving averages, typically 26 day and 12 day. When the shorter-term EMA crosses above the longer-term EMA, the MACD will move above zero, and vice versa. When the MACD is above zero, this is viewed as an indicator that the price is on an upward trend.
-
The RSI (Relative Strength Index) measures the magnitude of price changes relative to recent prices whereas MACD looks at the relationship between two EMAs.
-
OBV (On-Balance Volume) is a momentum indicator that takes volume information and combines it into a single metric. If OBV is increasing while price remains stable, this can indicate that the price is due for a sharp upward or downward move. The actual value of OBV is not important, it is the cumulative value and the slope of the graph that holds the information.
- What is MACD and how is it used?
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a kind of oscillating indicator that uses two moving averages to do all of the calculations. The first line is the MACD line that can help traders quickly spot increasing short-term momentum. The second line is the signal line. When they cross itâs usually time to get into or out of a trade.
- What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
MACD is an oscillating indicator that fluctuates above and below zero. It is both a trend-following and momentum indicator.
RSI is another oscillating indicator where the moving is contained between zero and 100 providing different information that MACD. RSI interprets when a price is overbought or oversold.
- What is OBV and how is it used?
On-Balance Volume takes a significant amount of volumen information and compiles it into a single one-line indicator.
OBV is used to confirm trends. When the OBV is rising the price should be rising. If the price is rising and OBV is flat-lining or falling the price may be near the top. If the price is falling and OBV is flat-lining or rising, the price could be nearing a bottom.
-
MACD is an oscillating indicator allowing to identify trends and trade entry/exit points. It comprises fast and slow lines. Linesâ crossovers may serve as indication of trade entry/exit points. Indicator flowing above or below â0â axis may be interpreted as up or down trends in action.
-
While MACD moves below and above â0â axis, RSI moves within 0-to-100 range. RSI may serve as an indicator of âoverboughtâ or âoversoldâ conditions within any trend, against MACD which is more helpful in identifying trends.
-
OBV reflects changes in volumes traded and is represented as a single line. In an ideal situation OBV works as a trend indicator. It is used to identify prices âtopâ and âbottomâ conditions when there is divergence between the OBV line and the instument priceline.
1 What is MACD and how is it used?
MACD is an indicator that can help traders spot increasing short-term momentum and can be used to view the overall trend of the market
2 What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
The RSI is another Oscillating indicator like MACD but its movement is contained between 0 and 100
The RSI provides information about if the price is overbought
3 What is OBV and how is it used?
OBV measures cumulative buying and selling by adding volume on up days and subtracting it on down days. Ideally, the OBV should confirm trends
- What is MACD and how is it used?
The Moving Average lines are smoother indicators that show general trends. Cross overs in between 2 MACD lines on different time frames can be seen as Bullish signals or Bearish depending in which direction the fast line crosses the slower line.
- What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
As opposed to the MACD which shows market trends, the RSI is a metric between 0-100 showing if a stock is overbought or underbought.
- What is OBV and how is it used?
The On Balance Volume shows how much of the stock units are being shifted within a timeframe. It is used to see the demand of the stock and how reliable the shifts in the market are. I.e. If there is a very low volume, during weekends for example, then the market can shift without much volume.
-
The MACD is a oscillating indicator that looks for trends reversals, it is used for buy and sell signals.
-
MACD indicates the strength of the market while RSI indicates how overbought/oversold the market is.
3.OBV indicates the buying and selling pressure it can be used to confirm trends.
-
MACD is an oscillating indicator that is used by traders to help them spot entries.
When line is below 0 the trend is likely down and vice versa. Crossing the line (2 lines in chart) up could be a buy signal, crossing down a sell signal. -
MACD indicates strenght and trend of the market, RSI can be interpreted as indicating oversold/overbought markets.
-
OBV uses significant amount of data to form a single line. Indicator goes up or down based on buy/sell pressure. Price goes up, OBV up and vice versa
-
The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a kind of oscillating indicator that can help traders quickly spot increasing short-term momentum. A way of using it would be to see which side of zero the oscillation may be. Any period of time above or bellow will indicate a bullish or bearish signal. It can also predict a change in sentiment by watching it cross zero.
-
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is another oscillating indicator but its movement is contained between zero and 100 so it provides different information than the MACD. It is used to show overbought and underbought signals by using a 0-100 scale. It is widely accepted that signal of 70> are overbought and signals of 30<are underbought. This information can assist in entering a long or short bid.
-
The indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on âupâ days and subtracting volume on âdownâ days. It can be used to indicate if the market will continue up or down by observing the trend in the OBV line.
-
The MACD is an oscillating indicator, fluctuating above and below zero. It is both a trend-following and momentum indicator.
One basic MACD strategy is to look at which side of zero the MACD lines are on in the histogram below the chart. Above zero for a sustainable period of time, and the trend is likely up; below zero for a sustained period of time, and the trend is likely down. Potential buy signals occur when the MACD moves above zero, and potential sell signals when it crosses below zero. -
The main difference is that RSI has values between 0 and 100 and it gives indications about phases of overbought and oversold in the market, while MACD fluctuating above and below zero and it gives more information about the trend of the market.
-
On-balance volume (OBV) takes a significant amount of volume information and compiles it into a single one-line indicator. The indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on âupâ days and subtracting volume on âdownâ days.
Ideally, the volume should confirm trends. A rising price should be accompanied by a rising OBV; a falling price should be accompanied by a falling OBV.
-
Moving Average Convergence and Divergence - Used to signal potential buy and sell positions to get into. When fast line crosses slow line from below to above (buy signal) when fast line crosses slow line from above to below (sell signal).
-
MACD is used to determine trends and there strength. RSI indicates general over bought or oversold conditions.
-
On Balance Volume - Used to indicate buying and selling pressure in the market.
1/. What is a MACD and how is it used. ?
The âmoving average convergence divergenceâ, ( MACD ) is an Oscillating Indicator.
It is used as an analysis indicator, that swings back and forth above 0 and below 0, it varies over
time within a band, it is both a trend-following and momentum indicator.
2/. What is the difference between the MACD and the RSI. ?
The Relative strength index (RSI) is another oscillating indicator but its movement is different, its between 0-100, so it provides different information than the MACD.
3/. What is OBV and how is it used. ?
An OBV is an âOn balance volume indicatorâ, Volume itself is a valuable indicator, an (OBV) takes a significant amount of volume info, and compiles it into a single one-line indicator.
The indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure, by adding the volume up on âUPâ days, and subtracting volume on âDOWNâ days.
Ideally the volume should confirm trends, a rising price should be accompanied by a rising (OBV), a falling price should be accompanied by a falling (OBV).
The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a kind of oscillating indicator that can help traders quickly spot increasing short-term momentum.
The relative strength index (RSI) is a momentum indicator that measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions in the price of a stock.
The on-balance volume (OBV) indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on âupâ days and subtracting volume on âdownâ days.
- Moving Average Convergence Divergence. An indicator that shows relationship between two exponential moving averages of a price. Indicates the bullish or bearish movement in the price strengthening or weakening.
Triggers technical signals when it crossovers signal line. Above (buy) or below (sell). Speed of crossovers also indicates if market is overbought or oversold. - MACD subtracts 26-period EMA from 12-period EMA to indicate the momentum of stock price movement.
RSI indicates if the market is overbought or oversold in relation to recent price levels. RSI calculates average price gains and losses over a given period of time. - On-Balance Volume. Technical trading momentum indicator that uses moment flow to predict changes in assetâs price. It shows crowd sentiment to predict bullish or bearish outcome. Rising OBV reflects positive volume pressure that can lead to higher prices. Falling OBV can indicate lower prices coming.

What is MACD and how is it used?
The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a kind of oscillating indicator that can help traders quickly spot increasing short-term momentum.
It can be used to enter into a trade when it crosses over the zero line. Also the signal lines can be used as an indicator for possible trades when the fast line crosses over the slow line. -
What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
The RSI or Relative Strength Index is also an oscillating index but it ranges between 0 and 100. It provides information if a market is overbought (lager than 70) or oversold (below 30). -
What is OBV and how is it used?
The on-balance volume (OBV) indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on âupâ days and subtracting volume on âdownâ days.
It can be used to confirm a trend. If the OBV rises and price rises this confirms the uptrend and indicates further price increase. If the OBV flat lines or drops when the price is still rising, this indicates a possible top for the price. Also if the OBV flat lines or rises and the price falls this would indicate the price is near a bottom.
