Reading this window

The projection called for MACD to rise across the window, and it rose. The two moves were close in size: the projection covered 1.04 times the distance the market actually travelled. Bar to bar, 76% of the moves ran the same way as the projection, and 29 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 3 (4:31 PM ET), where they sat 0.0641321 apart, and furthest at bar 19 (4:48 PM ET) with a gap of 8.40615. The largest single bar change in the recorded values came at bar 14 (4:43 PM ET), a move of +1.73706. 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 Micro E mini Nasdaq 100 activity rather than a single print.
