The purpose of this research is to find out when there is a sell signal and buy signal using the MACD indicator and determine the trend that occurs in the stock price movement of the property and real estate sub-sector companies during the 2015-2017 period, to determine investment decisions which must be done based on the trends that occur with a sell signal or buy signal that is formed and to determine the accuracy of the sell signal or buy signal that is formed from the MACD indicator. The approach used is quantitative approach with descriptive analysis. Data analysis technique used is technical analysis with MACD indicator. The research conclusions are (1) BIKA produces one buy signal, DMAS produces six sell signal and five buy signal, MMLP produces four buy signal, PPRO produces one sell signal and one buy signal, TARA produces seven sell signal. (2) BIKA experiencing downtrend and sideways trend, DMAS experiencing sideways trend, uptrend, and downtrend, MMLP experiencing downtrend, uptrend, and sideways trend, PPRO experiencing uptrend, sideways trend, and downtrend, TARA experiencing uptrend and sideways trend. (3) Good investments decisions to do are to purchase DMAS and MMLP shares and sell DMAS, PPRO, and TARA shares. (4) Based on the results of the paired sample t-test, there is no significant difference between the sell signal and the buy signal before MACD with the sell signal and buy signal after MACD so that the technical analysis with MACD indicator is accurate and can be used as a guidelines in determining the sell signal and buy signal in stock trading in property and real estate sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.
