1) Can anyone give me the formula for MACD (9,19,6), knowing that the stardard version is MACD (12,26,9)? [I can't plot it with the stardard MACD installed in Metastock.
I want to show the divergence value as well.
2) I have problem showing the value of indicators in the inner chart. Say Stochastic (18,5,5), under "inner window property", I have chosen "show toolbar", ticked "show value in title bar", only one figure is shown, not all two.
Can I show the values of the indicators in the inner shart without the title so as to maximize the visual of indicator?
3) Can I show the value of the price on the price bar, say in candle stick, while using real time quotes?
Thanks!!
Gary

I can point you in the right direction for your #1.
Previous post on MACD
Patrick also went over changing the the values in his training lesson 2.
Basically you will have to break the MACD into its basic formula.
MACD() = mov(c,12,e)-mov(c,26,e). In the lesson the lines don’t line up exactly, but they are close. Patrick said he will go over the differences some time.

This is one way to code your MACD 9,19,6. This will plot the MACD and the MACD trigger line (Moving average of the MACD). It will be plotted as two lines with the same color. To change the color and/or line style for one of the lines just highlight it and them make the change.
MD:=Mov(C,9,E)-Mov(C,19,E);
MDT:=Mov(MD,6,E);
MD;MDT;
Another way is to make two different indicators and them combine them into a single window. This will allow the line color and/or style to be incorporated when coding.
Good luck.

hey gary.... from your mentioning I have chosen "show toolbar", ticked it sounds like your using the top most selection 'chart window properties'..... drop down 1 from that and try 'inner window' then properties..... it sounds like 'show value in title bar' is not checked.......
with the title bars not shown, you can use the 'data window' from the tool bar to show last/current value of all indicators on your chart in streaming style if your real time.... the pointer will have to stay on the last bar, so it likely will not be what your after.....h

For changing the title bar contents etc, have a look in your manual in the chapter titled, "Customizing a Chart's Appearance"
wabbit :D

Hey hayseed,
I have ticked the 'show value in title bar' in the inner window. For Stochastic, only the value is shown without the moving average value.
Anyone know how to show it up??

hey gary.... this is not what you have in mind but, click on the moving average, only the ma..... then hold, drag and drop it in the pane with the price bars.... it will now print the value in that pane.....of course you could have dropped it in a new pane, with the same result....
will look into it some more......h
