What is the MACD indicator in MT5?
The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator in MT5 is a momentum-based financial trading tool that detects potential trends and directions in the market. It suggests buying/selling opportunities when the moving averages of different periods cross to the upside/downside.
However, the regular MACD indicator doesn’t display arrows as signals for buying or selling entries, which makes it somewhat of a hassle to identify a confirmed signal. Therefore, this version of the indicator (MACD True Alert indicator for MT5) was developed to improve the original MACD, thereby increasing its efficiency and suitability for beginners and advanced traders.
