Moving average convergence / divergence (MACD, short for MACD)
is a common technical analysis tool in stock trading, which was put forward by Gerald Appel in 1970s. It is used to study and judge the intensity, direction, energy and trend cycle of stock price change, find out the support and pressure of stock price, so as to grasp the timing of stock buying and selling
MACD index is composed of a group of curves and graphs, which is calculated by the difference between the fast changing and slow changing EMA of stock price or index at the closing“ "Fast" refers to a shorter period of EMA, while "slow" refers to a longer period of EMA, the most commonly used are the 12 and 26 day EMA In fact, MACD is the departure and intersection of two exponential moving averages EMA (12) and EMA (26). EMA (26) can be regarded as the zero axis of MACD, but the message noise presented by MACD is less than that of the average MACD is a trend analysis indicator, and it is not suitable to analyze different market environments at the same time. The following are three kinds of trading signals:1. Dif value intersects with signal line (DEM value, also known as MACD value)
The difference value intersects the zero axis (3) the deviation between stock price and spread DIF is a fast line, and DEM is a slow linewhen dif passes through DEM from bottom to top, it is a buy signal; On the contrary, if you cross from top to bottom, it is a sell signal. Buying and selling signals may appear frequently and need to be analyzed together with other pointers (such as RSI and KD)
The function of MACD bar / oscillator (OSC) is to show the difference between "deviation value" and "signal line", and to specify the trend of the two lines, so as to judge the buying and selling signals formed by the intersection of deviation value and signal line. For example, the declining bar chart represents that the difference between the two lines goes in a negative direction and the trend is downward; Close to the zero axis, the difference value and the signal line will intersect to proce a buying and selling signalthe bar graph will be distributed above and below the zero axis (x axis) according to the positive and negative values. When the bar chart is above the zero axis, the trend is strong, otherwise, the trend is weak
the bottom-up spread across the zero axis represents the favorable market atmosphere for the stock price, and vice versa. When the deviation and signal line are above the zero axis, it is called a long market, otherwise, it is called a short market
when the stock price reaches a new low, but MACD does not reach a new low (bull market deviation), it will be regarded as good (good) news, and the stock price decline may be over. On the contrary, if the stock price reaches a new high, but MACD does not reach a new high (bear market deviation), it will be regarded as bearish news. Similarly, if the stock price does not match the bar chart, a similar conclusion can be drawn
MACD is a medium and long term index. When the stock market has a strong shock or the stock price has a huge change (such as stock allotment, stock split, etc.), it may give the wrong signal. Therefore, when deciding the stock operation, we should carefully refer to other indicators, as well as the market situation, and can not fully trust the single judgment of the differential value to avoid losses 
extended data:
basic usage
1. MACD golden fork: diff breaks through DEA from bottom to top, which is a buying signal
2. MACD dead fork: diff breaks through DEA from top to bottom, which is a sell signal
The MACD value changed from negative to positive, and the market changed from short to long The MACD value changed from positive to negative, and the market changed from long to short When diff and DEA are both positive, that is, they are both above the zero axis, the trend is a bull market. If diff breaks through DEA upward, it can be used as a buying signal When diff and DEA are both negative, that is, they are both below the zero axis, the trend is short market, and if diff falls below DEA, it can be used as a sell signal When the trend of DEA line deviates from that of K line, it is reverse signal The error rate of DEA is higher in the consolidation situation, but it can make up for the shortcomings if combined with RSI and KDJthe original answer of Pan Sidong is expected to be evaluated and adopted by the building owner.

in the actual investment, MACD index not only has the functions of bottom hunting (deviation is the bottom), capturing extremely strong rising point (MACD turns red for two consecutive times), capturing "end point of washing dish" (deviation from buying up and down), so that you can enjoy the fun of rising after buying, but also can capture the best selling point, help you escape the top successfully, and make you enjoy the feeling after harvest. The methods of using MACD to capture the best selling points are as follows:
adjust the relevant parameters of MACD
set the fast EMA parameter of MACD to 8, the slow EMA parameter to 13, and the dif parameter to 9. The moving average parameters are 5, 10 and 30 respectively. After setting the parameters, we are looking for selling points. As there are many selling points of a stock, this paper introces two most effective and commonly used techniques for escaping from the top:
the first selling point or relative top
it means that the stock price appears horizontal after a sharp rise, thus forming a relative high point. Investors, especially those with large amount of capital, must ship goods or rece their positions at the first selling point. The skill to judge the establishment of "the first selling point" is "the stock price moves sideways and MACD sells with a dead cross". That is to say, when the stock price moves sideways after a continuous rise, the 5-day and 10 day moving average has not yet formed a dead cross, but MACD takes the lead in the dead cross. The dead Cross Day is the day when the "first selling point" is formed, so it should be sold or reced
after the formation of the first selling point, some stocks did not fall sharply, but pretended to make a breakthrough to cover the shipment after the callback, which was also called the "virtual wave pull up". The high point formed at this time is often the highest point of a wave of bull market, so it is also called the "absolute top", If we can't escape smoothly at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable
the skill to judge the establishment of absolute top is "price and MACD deviate from selling", that is, when the stock price rises to a new high, MACD can't reach a new high at the same time, and the trend of the two deviates, which is an obvious signal that the stock price reaches the top. It must be pointed out that when selling stocks absolutely, we must not wait for the dead cross of MACD to sell them again, because when the dead cross of MACD occurs, the stock price has fallen a lot, so we must refer to the K-line portfolio when selling stocks at the top of a false wave
generally speaking, it is an excellent time to sell if there is a "high opening and low going negative line" or a "long and low shadow line and limit rising positive line" in the process of virtual wave pulling
last but not least, because of the lag of MACD index, it is particularly suitable for those stocks that have risen sharply and become platform leaders, but not for those stocks that have fallen sharply. In addition, most of the above two points appear after the sharp rise of the stock, that is to say, it appears after the main rising wave of the stock. If a stock has not yet risen substantially, and there is no trend of the main rising wave, then do not use the above methods
