The MACD Histogram is a momentum indicator measured by typically subtracting a 26 period moving average from a 12 period moving average.

Overloads

Signature	Description
`MacdHistogram(int longCycle, int shortCycle, int signalPeriods)`	The MACD Histogram is a momentum indicator measured by typically subtracting a 26 period moving average from a 12 period moving average.
`MacdHistogram(DataSeries source, int longCycle, int shortCycle, int signalPeriods)`	Initializes the MacdHistogram indicator instance for a specific source series

The MACD Histogram is a momentum indicator measured by typically subtracting a 26 period moving average from a 12 period moving average.

C#Python

MacdHistogram MacdHistogram(int longCycle, int shortCycle, int signalPeriods)

api.Indicators.MacdHistogram(longCycle: int, shortCycle: int, signalPeriods: int) -> MacdHistogram

Parameters

Name	C# type	Python type	Description
`longCycle`	`int`	`int`	The long period used calculation.
`shortCycle`	`int`	`int`	The short period used calculation.
`signalPeriods`	`int`	`int`	The period used for the calculation of the signal.

Returns MacdHistogram — The Macd Histogram indicator instance

Examples

C#Python

var macd = Indicators.MacdHistogram(26, 12, 9);
Print("MACD histogram: {0}, signal: {1}", macd.Histogram.LastValue, macd.Signal.LastValue);

macd = api.Indicators.MacdHistogram(26, 12, 9)
api.Print(f"MACD histogram: {macd.Histogram.LastValue}, signal: {macd.Signal.LastValue}")

Initializes the MacdHistogram indicator instance for a specific source series
