Resumen:
Mainly belonging to the group of statistical technical analysis indicators known as trend
indicators, the MACD has its use supported by the need to identify asset trends and market
indices and to help in the perception of reversal and pullback signals, for example. One of the
signs of the reversal from bearish to bullish is the MACD-Histogram's bullish divergence.
Therefore, this research work aims to show how the bullish (positive) divergence of the
MACD histogram can be speculated with purchase operations in the stock market. In this
sense, for this study with a descriptive purpose and bibliographic and documentary means,
stocks which companies are from different economic activities were selected, being Magazine
Luiza (MGLU3) and VALE S.A. (VALE3) on B3 and Ambev S.A. (ABEV) on the NYSE
(New York Stock Exchange), between 2021 and 2022. The simulated opportunities supported
trades with capital gains ranging from 5% to 38% in less than 80 consecutive days. Finally, in
this work, there is still an innovation by merging the two approaches to mitigate their
limitations and enable the trader to have higher success rates.
