We don't know everything about the markets.  We're just devoted to learning.  Taken from those smarter than ourselves, here's how we define MACD.

A acronym for Moving Average Convergence Divergence, MACD is a technical indicator used to identify moving averages that may be indicating the coming of a new trend, bullish or bearish.  The MACD is one of the most popular trading indicators and can be applied to daily, weekly, or monthly charts to try to determine changes in price points and trends.  Traders make use of the MACD to identify when bullish or bearish momentum is high in order to identify when to enter or exit a trade.
