📉 90% of people are wrong using MACD

They buy as soon as they see a golden cross,
and think a reversal is coming when the red histogram shortens.
What’s the result?

They miss the rebound and lose the entire trend.

👇 This chart directly reveals the truth about MACD.

① Remember one thing first

The zero line determines whether you follow the trend or bet on a rebound.

DIF, DEA below the zero line + heading down
👉 This is a standard bear market

At this time:

Red histogram shortens ❌ is not a buy signal
It just indicates weakening downward momentum

The essence still favors the bears

📌 The “improvement” within the bears should be viewed as a rebound.

② Golden cross ≠ guaranteed rise

The key is to look at one thing: where it occurs

🔥 Golden cross above the water (strong)

Golden cross occurs above the zero line

Red histogram begins to lengthen

👉 This is not a rebound,
👉 but an acceleration within the trend

📈 This is the most favored signal for trend traders.

⚠️ Golden cross below the water (weak)

Golden cross below the zero line
Green histogram shortens

👉 Essentially:

Short covering

Short-term rebound

📉 Low stability, weak momentum,
most of the time just giving you an opportunity to exit.

③ How should MACD be truly interpreted?

✅ Zero line → determines trend direction
✅ Histogram → judge the strength of momentum
✅ Position of the golden cross → decide the signal level

💡 To sum up in one sentence

MACD never tells you “whether to buy” or not,
it only tells you:
whether you are following the trend,
or betting on a rebound.
If you don’t understand the zero line,
learning more MACD won’t help.
