Candlestick Chart Guide

1. EMA (Exponential Moving Average)

EMA, also known as the EXPMA indicator, is a trend-following exponential moving average indicator. EMA places more weight on today's price than yesterday's price because current prices better reflect recent market fluctuations. It offers more stable performance in weekly trading as fewer golden crosses and death crosses form, but it can react quickly when these crosses do occur.
A golden cross occurs when the short-term line crosses above the long-term line. A death cross occurs when the short-term line crosses below the long-term line. A golden cross signals a long position, while a death cross signals a short position. Both are critical trading points.

1. MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence
