The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence indicator is a momentum oscillator primarily used to trade trends. Although it is an oscillator, it is not typically used to identify over bought or oversold conditions. It appears on the chart as two lines which oscillate without boundaries. The crossover of the two lines give trading signals similar to a two moving average system.
One of the reasons that MACD is so popular is because its trading signals are fairly unambiguous. You can see a good video introduction to its usage here but, in summary, there are three popular ways to use the MACD: crossovers (signal line or centre-line), overbought/oversold conditions, and divergences.
