📌 Key Components:

🔹 MACD Line – The difference between the 12-day and 26-day EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages).
🔹 Signal Line – A 9-day EMA of the MACD Line, smoothing out signals.
🔹 Histogram – The difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line, visually showing momentum shifts.

📍 Step 2: Apply MACD with default settings (12, 26, 9).
📍 Step 3: Customize colors and line thickness for better visibility.

3️⃣ How to Read MACD Signals

📈 Crossovers:
✔️ MACD Line crossing above the Signal Line → Bullish signal (Buy opportunity).
❌ MACD Line crossing below the Signal Line → Bearish signal (Sell opportunity).

📊 Histogram Changes:
🔹 Growing histogram → Strengthening trend momentum.
🔹 Shrinking histogram → Weakening momentum (potential reversal).
