Different functionalities have been added to the original code, such as alerts and signals that seek to make trading much easier to interpret by any type of trading operator of any experience level, from beginner to intermediate and advanced.
Key components of the original indicator:
● The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is calculated by subtracting a long period (26) Exponential Moving Average (EMA) from a short (12) period EMA.
● MACD triggers technical signals when it crosses above (to buy) or below (to sell) its signal line.
● The speed of crossovers is also taken as a signal of a market is overbought or oversold.
● MACD helps traders to understand whether the bullish or bearish movement in the price is strengthening or weakening.

It can function as a trigger for buy and sell signals, when you cross above (to buy) or below (to sell) your signal line. It helps to understand if the movement is bullish or bearish, if it is getting stronger or weaker. The further the MACD is above or below its baseline, it indicates that the distance between the two EMAs will be growing, often shown with a histogram that graphically represents the distance between the MACD and its signal line, and It is used to identify when the bullish or bearish momentum.
