Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a trend-following indicator of momentum that illustrates the relationship between two moving averages of prices. The MACD is estimated by subtracting the 26-day exponential moving average from the 12-day moving average. A nine-day exponential moving average of the MACD, the "signal line", is then plotted on top of the MACD, functioning as an identifier for both buy and sell signals.

The graph below shows the MACD applied to the price of Steem using daily price data for the last 40 days.

As shown in the chart above, the MACD is currently above the signal line, implying a bullish signal, indicating that it may be an optimal time to buy.

According to the MACD, a bullish signal suggests that the price of the asset is likely to experience upward momentum.
