# MACD Histogram

### What is the MACD Histogram?

<mark style="color:$info;">The MACD Histogram measures the difference between the MACD line and the signal line. It visualizes</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">**momentum shifts**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">with a clear color-coded bar chart that makes it easy to spot transitions in trend strength.</mark>

### Histogram

<mark style="color:$info;">This version of the histogram uses dynamic color gradients to show trend strength. Positive (above-zero) bars are typically green or teal, and negative (below-zero) bars are red. The color intensity adjusts based on momentum:</mark>

<mark style="color:$info;">Stronger momentum shows in more saturated colors.</mark>

<mark style="color:$info;">Weaker momentum fades into lighter tones.</mark>

### Histogram Signals

<mark style="color:$info;">To help identify turning points more easily, the module can also display</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">**signal markers**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">as small plus signs (+). These appear when the histogram changes direction:</mark>

* <mark style="color:$info;">A green (+) marks a bullish reversal in the histogram.</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">A red (+) marks a bearish reversal in the histogram.</mark>

<mark style="color:$info;">These signals are filtered to appear only at meaningful points, avoiding noise and keeping the chart clean.</mark>&#x20;

<mark style="color:$info;">They're especially useful when momentum turns at extreme levels or when used in combination with MACD Signals or Divergence detection.</mark>
