The trainers cannot give settings, interpretation or investment advice. This includes defining what a buy or sell signal would be for MACD.

One way to write the formula for a Raw MACD would be:

Current Exponential MACD 5,17:

XAVGC5 - XAVGC17

Previous Exponential MACD 5,17:

XAVGC5.1 - XAVGC17.1
