4. MACD
The MACD is a momentum oscillator formed by using two different types of moving averages, which
provides specific buying or selling signals. When a MACD line crosses above the signal line, it is
considered to be a positive sign and indicates a time to buy, and vice-versa.
The MACD Linecrossed over the signal line at the middle of last week, and it seems to be trying to get
out of the negative zone. Currently, both the lines are still below the zero level. MACD at the end of
last week stands at -13.20 and Signal Line at -16.85.

trading bands above (upper band) and below it (lower band). The bands are an indication of volatility,
which are represented by calculating standard deviation.

Overview:
Last week, the NEPSE index witnessed a remarkable recovery by gaining almost all the points it had
lost after the massive earthquake. Closing at 926.84, the index gained a total of 84.88 points (or
9.73%). However, the moving averages do not support the optimism of the market given that the 200-
day moving average has crossed over the 50-day moving average. The average daily market volume
increased last week to NPR 25.90 crores from NPR 14.92 crores the week prior. The RSI currently
stands at a neutral zone, ending at 53.32. The MACD line has moved above the signal line,and both
the lines are stillat a negative territory. Thegap between the upper and lower Bollinger bands still
suggests high market volatility. Nepse surpassed two resistance levels last week. Its current support
and resistance level stands at 919.88 and 938.41 respectively.
