The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator has the past few years become one of the more popular computer-generated technical indicators. The MACD, developed by Gerald Appel, is both a trend follower and a market momentum indicator (an oscillator). The MACD is the difference between a fast exponential moving average and a slow exponential moving average. An exponential moving average is a weighted moving average that usually assigns a greater weight to more recent price action. |

The Keltner Channel was developed by Chester Keltner back in the early 1960s. He is a well-known commodity trader, especially grains. It is a volatility-based indicator that makes use of the "envelope theory." Moving average bands (or channels), like the Keltner Channel, fall into the general category of envelopes. These envelopes consist of three lines: a middle line and two outer lines. Envelope theory states that the market price will generally fall between the boundaries of the envelope (or channel). If prices move outside the envelope, it is a trading signal or trading opportunity. Some have used the Keltner Channel as a trading system. |
