Whether you use 8-17-9 or 12-25-9, the bullish divergence persists.

Appel developed the moving average convergence-divergence indicator and originally recommended one for sell signals and the other for buy signals.

Some play with the numbers to customize the MACD. Read Murphy, The Visual Investor or Elder on this.

The bottom line is that in practice it makes no difference whether you use 12-25-9 or 8-17-9 and the more experience you develope with using these in conjunction with oscillators, the more you will realize this.

The most important signal is the Bullish divergence indicating an imminent short term trend reversal. Elder describes this best in his books.

If Kip is a good contrary indicator, and by the sound of his posts he is, we should see a big up move soon.
