```sift
where macd().line crosses below macd().signal
  and macd().line > 0
```

The mirror of the bullish cross, and the more useful of the two for anyone already holding stock. Requiring the cross above zero catches names losing momentum while still in an uptrend, which is where the signal has something to say — below zero it is confirming a decline already well underway.
