MACD: Mathematical interpretation & Overview

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is a trading indicator used in technical analysis of securities prices, created by Gerald Appel in the late 1970s. It is designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price.
