Reading this window

The projection called for MACD to rise, while it fell instead. The market travelled further than projected — the projection covered only 0.63 times the realised distance. Bar to bar, 66% of the moves ran the same way as the projection, and 18 of the 30 bars finished on the projected side of the opening reading. One window is a single observation, not a pattern; it is published here so the projection and the outcome can be checked against each other.

How the window developed

The two paths were closest at bar 12 (11:31 AM ET), where they sat 0.136003 apart, and furthest at bar 27 (11:47 AM ET) with a gap of 41.134. The largest single-bar change in the recorded values came at bar 5 (11:25 AM ET), a move of +5.39449. The projected and recorded paths crossed at least once inside the window.

About MACD on a 1-minute chart

MACD tracks the distance between two exponential moving averages of price; the line above moves as that distance widens or narrows. On the 1-minute timeframe a 30-bar projection covers 30 minutes of trading, so the window above describes 30 minutes of BTCUSD activity rather than a single print.
