The MACD has two zones. When the price is going up and the histogram is above the zero lines, it is in the positive zone. It serves as a strong indication that the trend is up.
Basically, when the histogram is crossing the zero line going upwards, it is a BUY SIGNAL.
However, if the histogram is below the zero-line, it is in the negative zone, which means that the current trend is down.
So, when the price is crossing down below the zero-line, this is considered a SELL SIGNAL.
There are a number of entry rules but they are very simple. Basically, before entering a sell trade, I just make sure that the Red MACD has visually crossed under and is below the Blue MACD.
NOTE: The zero line of the Yellow MACD and the zero-line of the Blue MACD are usually not on the same level. So, when referring to a MACD crossing the zero line, it means that it is crossing its own zero-line without reference to the zero-line of the other MACD.
- Fast EMA > Slow EMA
- The price is going up and the (red & Blue) histogram is above the zero lines
- Red histogram > Blue histogram
- Fast EMA < Slow EMA
- The price is going down and the (red & Blue) histogram is below the zero lines

Avoid news releases. Also, if the price does not move in my favor or tends to range, I will close the trade before hitting the take profit or my mental stop before I go to sleep.
