Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) which is developed by Gerald Appel in the late seventies, is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of prices. The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-day exponential moving average (EMA) from the 12-day EMA. A nine-day EMA of the MACD is called the "signal line". The two most popular strategies to generate buy/sell signals from MACD are as follow: Center Line Crossover ============== 1. Potential BUY signal is generated when the 12-day EMA moves above the 26-day EMA. 2. Potential SELL signal is generated when the 12-day EMA moves below the 26-day EMA. Signal Line Crossover =============== 1. Potential BUY signal is generated when the MACD turns up and crosses above the signal line. 2. Potential SELL signal is generated when the MACD turns down and crosses below the signal line. Easy MACD Crossover provides a comprehensive dashboard that allows you to view the BUY/SELL signals from two of the most popular and effective strategies on many popular instruments and across multiple timeframes (M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D1) at one glance.

Currency strength is a popular indicator used by Forex traders to make sense of price moves in the Forex market. It takes advantage of price correlation between various Forex pairs. Currency strength is measured for 8 currencies (USD, JPY, EUR, GBP, AUD, NZD, CHF & CAD) and is reported on a scale of 0 (weakest) to 10 (strongest). Currency strength data provides the trader with important insights into the forces at play causing a move on a particular Forex pair. For example, if GBP/USD suddenly trends upwards following an economic news announcement (e.g. US Non-Farm Payroll), the currency strength values would immediately indicate whether the move was due to generalized GBP strength or USD weakness. Features: Quality streaming data feed: fast updates, low latency, accurate currency strength data. 6 currency strength time-frames. Bar Charting: multiple time-frames, history look-back feature, real-time max/min highlighting. Line Charting: multiple time-frames, pinch & zoom, pan gestures. Customisable.
