Does MACD Agree on ES and RTY? (30-minute Charts)

Educational reference. Measured from recorded market data through October 2, 2026. Not a prediction.

MACD measures momentum, as the distance between two moving averages. This page asks a narrower question than the price comparison: when MACD moves on E-mini S&P 500, does it move the same way on E-mini Russell 2000?

Why this is not the same as the price question

Two markets can move together while their momentum, trend strength or volatility do not. A reading that agrees far less than price suggests is exactly where one market is losing steam while the other keeps going — and a reading that agrees more is tracking something shared that direction alone does not capture.
