OK, for newbies, -ve div. is that market rises MACD falls. And +ve div. is market falls MACD rises. Now another form of divergence that we may encounter is that market falls and compared to the market the MACD falls more, in such a case market rallies up and then its boat load of long sheep gong south. Similiarly if MACD rises more than the Market then market rallies down and then heads for space.
