Reading this window

The projection called for MACD to fall, while it rose instead. The market travelled further than projected — the projection covered only 0.64 times the realised distance. Bar to bar, 62% of the moves ran the same way as the projection, and 22 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 23 (8:17 AM ET), where they sat 0.171565 apart, and furthest at bar 29 (3:10 PM ET) with a gap of 7.52532. The largest single bar change in the recorded values came at bar 25 (11:14 AM ET), a move of +1.42278. The projected and recorded paths crossed at least once inside the window.

About MACD on a 59 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 59 minute timeframe a 30 bar projection covers 29.5 hours of trading, so the window above describes 29.5 hours of Micro E mini Nasdaq 100 activity rather than a single print.
