When evaluating MACD to identify trading opportunities, a nuanced approach to analysis can help you identify particularly strong momentum for big price swings that can quickly deliver profits-or losses, depending on which side of the price swing you’re trading on. In the chart below, two such crossovers coincide with changes in price movement for the currency pair. When those lines converge and then cross over one another, it can indicate a shift in momentum that traders may use to time their exit from a position or to plan a new position that aims to capitalize on this opportunity. The larger the gap between these lines, the stronger the trend in either direction.
On the CHF/JPY chart below, the gaps between the 26-day EMA (the blue line) and the signal line (the red line) correlate to the momentum of the price movement. This relationship is presented on a histogram that offers an easy visual representation of both the strength of a forex price trend as well as signals that may indicate a change in momentum. MACD is a momentum indicator that illustrates the relationship between the 26-day and 12-day exponential moving averages for a forex currency pair.

Here’s a look at how to use MACD and RSI as part of your trade analysis.
While they represent a similar approach to evaluating forex trades, the functions of both MACD and RSI are distinct, which makes them useful indicators to combine in trade evaluation. When used in combination with other technical indicators, both MACD and RSI can offer value in validating trade opportunities and timing trades to optimize your risk management practices. Both the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) and the relative strength index (RSI) rank among the most popular momentum indicators used in forex trading.
