}price: { vwap: 72.086, latest: 71.72 },"vwap": current vwap
Represents the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price. VWAP is important because it provides traders with pricing insight into both the trend and value of a security.
"latest": most recent close price
This is the last closing price of the stock today. May change through out the day

}"days": average
This is the average of the close prices for the time period (days).
"days": average
This is the average of the close prices for the time period (days), but with a greater weight on the most recent prices.

bb_trend: 0.03,
signal: "Bull"
}"band_width": [width, width, width, ...]
This is the gap between the upper and lower bollinger bands, divided by the SMA of the period (20day). The smaller the number, the closer the "Squeeze" and contraction.
"bb_trend": trend number
This takes Bollinger band(20) and Bollinger band(50), then subracts their most recent plot points bb[20] - bb[50], and finally dividing that by the SMA(20). This will be a leading indicator for a Bull or Bear signal. Over 0 is bull, under 0 is bear.

}"k_line": [k, k, k, k...]
Plot points for the scholastic oscillator. This helps to determine if a stock is over bought or over sold. The range is 0 - 100. Anything above 80 is considered over bought, and is a leading indicator to sell. Under 20 is over sold, indicating a buy.
"d_line": [d, d, d, d...]
This is the average of the k line plots over a 3 day period. Considered a better indicator than k when looking for a turn around point and entry/exit timing.
"d_slow_line": [d, d, d, d...]
This is the average of the d line plots over a 3 day period. This is used to reinforce the confirmation of a turnaround and entry/exit point.

-0.6, -0.89, -1.16
],
signal_line: -0.58"macd_line": [diff off baseline, diff off baseline, ... ]
This is the EMA(12) - EMA(26). With 0 as the baseline, anything under is considered oversold, above is overbought.
"signal_line": todays signal spot
This is the EMA(9) of the macd_line, only for the current day. This could be a leading indicator, when and if the signal line is crossed by the macd_line. If the last value of the macd_line is close to the signal_line, a swing up or down may be coming.
