The MACD histogram isn’t just noise — it’s a leading signal for momentum shifts when interpreted correctly. On this AAVE 1H chart, a textbook transition plays out:
– Rising histogram fades → crosses below 0
– EMA filter confirms trend shift
– Strategy flips short at the peak, locks in a +10.76% move
The recent long trigger occurs only after the histogram begins rising, crosses above zero, and price breaks back above the 50/9/3 EMA filter.
💡 Histogram Tips:
– Rising bars = bullish momentum building
– Shrinking bars = momentum weakening
– Crossing the zero line = potential trend reversal
– Best results come when histogram + EMAs align
⚙️ Settings Used:
MACD: 25 / 60 / 220
EMA Filter: 50 / 9 / 3
Entry Mode: Both (Histogram + Crossover Confluence)
📈 Use histogram transitions as an early signal — but always confirm with trend filters to avoid fakeouts.
