Structural Change in the Stock Market Efficiency after the Millennium: The MACD Approach

This paper studies the profitability of the Moving Average Convergence-Divergence (MACD) trading rule under three different crossing rules: the MACD zero line, the 9-day and 14-day signal lines.

Our research also shows that generally the major stock markets around the world have become more efficient after the millennium.
