MACD of a stock's price series, newest first by default. The MACD line is the short EMA minus the long EMA.Computed from split-adjusted aggregate bars over the range start_time to end_time (by default as far back as your plan's history allows). The response is not paged: when more values exist in the range than limit, meta.coverage.complete is false; narrow start_time and end_time to read the rest.

Example request

curl -sS --get "https://api.ordermap.si/v1/stocks/indicators/macd" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ORDERMAP_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode symbol=AAPL

const params = new URLSearchParams({
  symbol: "AAPL",
});
const res = await fetch(`https://api.ordermap.si/v1/stocks/indicators/macd?${params}`, {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.ORDERMAP_API_KEY}` },
});
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const { data, meta } = await res.json();
console.log(data, meta.coverage);

Set ORDERMAP_API_KEY to your key. Replace the dates with a recent trading date.
