Example of historical stock price data (top half) with the typical presentation of a MACD(12,26,9) indicator (bottom half). The blue line is the MACD series proper, the difference between the 12-day and 26-day EMAs of the price. The red line is the average or signal series, a 9-day EMA of the MACD series.
By calculating McClellan Oscillator as the difference between 19-day EMA and 39-day EMA of advances minus declines, we apply MACD principle to Breadth sentiment - to see changes in shorter-term Breadth sentiment. Therefore, crossovers of McClellan Oscillator and zero center line around which it oscillates would have the following meaning:
An oscillator in technical analysis of financial markets is an indicator that informs if the price of a financial instrument is very high or very low, indicating whether it is overbought or oversold. This helps traders make decisions about when to trade (buy or sell) that instrument.
Technical analysts also widely use market indicators of many sorts, some of which are mathematical transformations of price, often including up and down volume, advance/decline data and other inputs. These indicators are used to help assess whether an asset is trending, and if it is, the probability of its direction and of continuation.
Technical indicators are a fundamental part of technical analysis and are typically plotted as a chart pattern to try to predict the market trend. [2] Indicators generally overlay on price chart data to indicate where the price is going, or whether the price is in an "overbought" condition or an "oversold" condition.

Ease of movement (EMV) [1] is an indicator used in technical analysis to relate an asset's price change to its volume.Ease of Movement was developed by Richard W. Arms, Jr. and highlights the relationship between volume and price changes and is particularly useful for assessing the strength of a trend.
The momentum and ROC indicators show trend by remaining positive while an uptrend is sustained, or negative while a downtrend is sustained. A crossing up through zero may be used as a signal to buy, or a crossing down through zero as a signal to sell. How high (or how low when negative) the indicators get shows how strong the trend is.
