Charger, There is an excellent links page for technical analysis resources at: hardrightedge.com (disclosure..I put it there) MACD stands for Moving Average Convergence-Divergence. It was created by Gerald Appel many years ago. It has a fast signal line crossing a slower one, giving buy-sell signals. Dr Alexander Elder popularized a variation of MACD in his book Trading for a Living. It's called MACD Histogram. You buy when the histogram turns up from under -0- for a few bars or when it crosses the zero line. And sell on the reverse. The idea behind any convergence-divergence study is to compare momentum through 2 or more time frames. If trend is speeding up in the shorter vs. the longer, that's a good indication it will continue to do so after you enter the trade. Alan
