What is a macd bot?

MACD — Moving Average Convergence Divergence — is the classic momentum indicator: the gap between a fast and a slow EMA, smoothed by a signal line. When MACD crosses above its signal line momentum is turning up; a cross below turns it down. A MACD bot automates those crossovers so you don't have to watch the chart — and on Cryptohopper.AI the bot computes the signal on a schedule while Cryptohopper places the trades on your connected exchange. Describe the pair, timeframe and periods and it's built, running in paper mode until you flip it live.

Common features

  • MACD crossover entries/exits (configurable fast/slow/signal periods)
  • Any pair and timeframe
  • Optional zero-line / histogram filters
  • Live signal + recent crossovers on a dashboard
  • Paper mode by default; live orders via your Cryptohopper hopper
  • Optional higher-timeframe trend filter

Real-world examples

Classic 12/26/9

The textbook MACD on BTC — long on a bullish cross, flat on a bearish one, fully automated.

Zero-line confirmation

Only take crosses above the zero line, to trade with momentum rather than against it.

Trend-filtered

A MACD bot that only longs when the daily trend is up, reducing whipsaw.

Why Cryptohopper.AI fits macd bot projects

Cryptohopper.AI writes the MACD math as pure, testable code, shows the live signal, and wires execution to Cryptohopper so crossovers actually become orders — paper-first. Tune the periods, add a filter, or switch indicators by chatting.

Frequently asked questions

What does a MACD bot do?
MACD tracks the relationship between two moving averages. A MACD bot buys when the MACD line crosses above its signal line (bullish momentum) and sells on the opposite cross — a classic trend/momentum strategy.
Does Cryptohopper place the trades?
Yes. The bot evaluates MACD on a schedule and routes orders to your connected Cryptohopper account, running in paper mode until you enable live trading.
Can I change the MACD periods?
Yes — fast, slow, and signal periods, the pair, and the timeframe are all configurable, and you can require a zero-line or trend filter.
