Most trading platforms should include a description but I do not recommend it.

Alot of indicators are used wrongly and has somewhat become the standard. Here is a book I recommend if you want a more detailed definition for most technical indicators:




The Encyclopedia of Technical Market Indicators - Robert W. Colby
