1- MACD is calculated by subtracting the long-term EMA (26 periods i.e.days;hours;minutes…) from the short-term EMA (12 periods). An exponential moving average EMA is a type of MA that places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. An EMA (exponentially weighted moving average) reacts more significantly to recent price changes than a simple moving average (SMA), which applies an equal weight to all observations in the period.
2- Basically an RSI is used to measure conditions of overbought or oversold of the asset ; whilst MACD gauges the momentum and strengh.
3- On-balance volume is an indicator of momentum, using volume changes to make price predictions.
OBV can predict a bullish or bearish outcome. Comparing relative action between price bars and OBV generates more actionable signals than the green or red volume histograms commonly found at the bottom of price charts.
1.What is MACD and how is it used?
The moving average convergence divergence is a kind of oscillating indicator that can help traders quickly spot increasing short-term momentum. A lot of traders use it as entry or exit point.
2.What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
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. Its movement is contained between zero and 100 so it provides different information than the MACD.
3.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 “up” days and subtracting volume on “down” days.
- What is MACD and how is it used?
- MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) you can use to see a trend. It is a smooth line and the price can be over, unter or on the MACD.
- What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
- RSI shows overbought or oversold market. MACD the average pricelevel in an certain periode.
- What is OBV and how is it used?
- It is an indicator for sellingpressure. More monex in the market more selling pressure.
MACD - moving average convergence divergence is a momentum indicator that tells the general direction in the short to medium term.
The MACD line is calculated by subtracting two exponential moving averages to create the main MACD line. A 12-day EMA and the 26-day EMA are considered to be the default settings for calculating the MACD line. Subtract the 12 day from the 26 day EMA to give you the MACD line. A 9 day EMA of the MACD line will give you the signal line.
To summarise, the MACD tracks the relationship between moving averages. The correlation between the two lines can be described as convergent and divergent. When the MACD crosses below the signal line it’s a sign of a downward trend. When the MACD crosses above the signal line it’s considered that an upward move is likely.
The difference between the MACD indicator and the RSI is the MACD is calculated by subtracting a 12 Day EMA from a 26 Day EMA (assuming default settings) and then calculating a 9 Day EMA from the MACD line to give you the signal line. What this tells us is the relationship between the 26 and 12 EMA and how if the MACD is greater than the signal line (9 Day EMA of the MACD) we’re likely to be going up. The RSI = 100 – 100/1+RS where RS = Average gain/Average Loss. This calculation can give us an insight into the strength of the move based on averages much in the same way as MACD except it gives us a value between 0 – 100, 30 being oversold, 70 being overbought. Neither of these indicators are an exact science and should be used in conjunction with other tools.
OBV stands for on-Balance Volume.
OBV is the sum of the volume on up days subtracted by the volume on down days.
OBV gives us a figure that shows us when we’re in an uptrend and the volume is flowing in it increases the chances that this direction is genuine and likely to continue.
When the price goes up but volume doesn’t go up much it means there isn’t that much participation
or keenness or simply a low volume stock.
OBV = OBV previous +/- trading volume
- Moving average convergence divergence is a trading signal that charts two moving averages of different time periods. The crossing of the lines is often used as an entry signal.
- MACD measures the moving average of an asset while the RSI can measure when an asset is overbought and due for a correction.
- OBV tracks the actual trading volume on a given day.
- The MACD is an oscillating indicator, fluctuating below and above zero. It is both a trend following and momentum indicator.
- The main difference is that the RSI ha values between 0 and 100. It shows when the price is overbought and oversold. The MACD fluctuate above and below zero and it gives more information about the current trend in the market.
- OBV measures positive and negative volume flow. it is a momentum indicator and identify divergence in price action.
-
The MACD stands for moving average convergence divergence and is used to gage short term momentum.
-
The RSI stands for relative strength index and is used to measure the magnitude of price changes, indicating overbought or oversold conditions, so while the MACD shows trend direction, the RSI shows potential upcoming shifts.
-
OBV stands for on-balance volume and is used to measure volume compared against the trendline. Differences between the trendline and the OBV indicate a likely upcoming shift in price.
1.It is an indicator that oscillates around 0. When indicator is above 0, it indicates an uptrend, and when it is below 0, it means we are in a downtrend.
-
MACD is more focused on trends either Up or Down with a fast and a slow line. RSI is showing over bought and over sold.
-
This is looking at volume on a day to day basis which can move up and down
- What is MACD, and how is it used?
MACD is an oscillating indicator that fluctuates above and below zero within a band. It is used as a trend following and the momentum indicator. There are two strategies you can use. If the MACD lines are above zero for a period of time shows signs of an upward trend. If the lines are below zero for the period of time trend is going down. Potential buy signals accrue when MACD moves above zero. And sell signals happen when MACD crosses below zero.
The second strategy is to use signal line crossover for the buy and sell signals. When the fast lines cross through and above the slow line, a buy signal occurs. When the fast line crosses through and below the slow line, a sell signal occurs.
-
What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
MACD and RSI are both oscillating indicators, but RSI’s movement is contained in between Zero and 100. MACD’s movement is contained in a band and a centerline. -
What is OBV, and how is it used?
OBV is an unbalance volume indicator. OBV takes volume information and compiles it into a single one-line indicator. It measures buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on up days and subtracting volume on down days. It is used to confirm trends. If the price is rising and the OBV is flat or falling, the price may be near the top. If the price is falling and the OBV is flat or rising the price could be near the bottom.
- What is MACD and how is it used?
Is a technical analysis indicator that varies over time within a band. It is both a trend-following and momentum indicator. - What is the difference between MACD and RSI?
The RSI and MACD are both trend-following momentum indicators that show the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price. …
The MACD measures the relationship between two EMAs, while the RSI measures price change in relation to recent price highs and lows. - What is OBV and how is it used?
On-balance volume-OBV is a technical indicator of momentum, using volume changes to make price predictions.
OBV shows crowd sentiment that can predict a bullish or bearish outcome.
The moving average convergence divergence combines a 50 day and 200 day moving average to help know when to buy and sell when the averages cross up or down
The RSI is similar but stays within a range of 0-100 to read wether something is overbought
OBV is used to measure trends based on averages to read buying or selling “pressure”
-
It is 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. 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.
Signal line crossovers can also provide additional buy and sell signals. A MACD has two lines—a 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. -
One way to interpret the RSI is by viewing the price as “overbought”—and due for a correction—when the indicator in the histogram is above 70, and viewing the price as oversold—and due for a bounce—when the indicator is below 30.
Trendlines or a moving average can help establish the trend direction and in which direction to take trade signals. -
The indicator measures cumulative buying and selling pressure by adding the volume on “up” days and subtracting volume on “down” days. If OBV is rising and the price isn’t, it’s 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.

Moving average convergence divergence
When it crosses over in overbought conditions it can signal downwards movement -
RSI compares the relative strength of bought and sold conditions. It signals above 70% and under 30%.
MACD has two lines including a signal line for the signalled crossing. -
It takes an larger amount of volume data and can show the trend in increasing volume. It can therefore confirm how strong the trend is.

- What is MACD and how is it used? Moving Average Convergence Divergence is an oscillating indicator the tells us the trend direction based on momentum.
- What is the difference between MACD and RSI? MACD shows us the trend direction and the RSI shows us how strong that trend direction is.
- What is OBV and how is it used? On Balance Volume is used to show us how likely the trend will continue by showing us the difference between the volume on up days versus volume on down days.
- MACD = Moving Average Convergence Divergence
a oscillating indicator that helps traders quickly spot short term price moves (makes price info/averages into one single line) - difference MACD & RSI= MACD shows which direction price is moving and RSI shows how strong or how MUCH the price is moving
- OBV= On Balance Volume confirms trends usually and can predict price shifts ahead of events
- MACD is an oscillating indicator that can help traders quickly spot increasing short-term momentum. In other words, the MACD is an oscillating indicator that helps traders spot potential trend reversals.
- The RSI - Relative Strength Index is also an oscillator, used for spotting moments of a market being oversold (undervalued) or overbought (overvalued). The main difference is that RSI is calculated from the relation on losses and gains and MACD from price moving average. One (RSI) is used to spot momentum once it happens, the other one (MACD) can help spotting trend reversals.
- On Balance Volume (OBV) measures buying and selling pressure as a cumulative indicator that adds volume on up days and subtracts volume on down days. The actual idea behind being that price follows volume.
-
A trend-following momentum oscillating applied to the price of a particular security using two moving averages to attempt to indicate the formation of a new trend.
-
MACD calculates two moving price averages fast and slow, and calculate the difference between them.
RSI takes the average of the bullish bars for n bars back and the average of the bearish bars for n bars back, and divides the bullish average by the bearish average and scales it to 0 to 100. -
Technical trading momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict changes in stock price and to project when major moves in the markets would occur based on volume changes.
