Reading this window

The projection called for MACD to rise, while it fell instead. The market travelled further than projected — the projection covered only 0.73 times the realised distance. Bar to bar, 90% of the moves ran the same way as the projection, and 23 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.

The two paths were closest at bar 13 (12:15 PM ET), where they sat 2.98047 apart, and furthest at bar 29 (12:32 PM ET) with a gap of 16.7219.

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.
