Indicator Notes|$LUMIA |4-hour MACD|Death Cross Above the Zero Line
Definition: EMA (exponential moving average) differs from a simple moving average in that it gives more weight to recent prices, so it responds a little faster.
Common interpretation: MACD calculation details vary slightly across platforms. A crossover that appears before a candlestick closes may disappear by the close, so crossovers confirmed at the close are more reliable.
The point of understanding an indicator is to be less alarmed by any single number, not to use it to predict whether prices will rise or fall.
