Reading this window

The projection called for MACD to rise across the window, and it rose. The projection overshot: it called for 1.49 times the distance the market actually travelled. Bar to bar, 62% 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 28 (1:36 PM ET), where they sat 0.0154392 apart, and furthest at bar 14 (12:49 AM ET) with a gap of 6.47311. The largest single bar change in the recorded values came at bar 8 (6:55 PM ET), a move of +1.63644. 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.
