Hello all,

I have been trying to use the below formular to detect MACD Lines crossover (Blue crosses Red / Red crosses Blue) but with inconsistence detection as my chart indicator MACD (Hist + 2 Lines) was set to (22, 50, 9).

Please help me how should I formulate my MetaStock Exploration Editor for consistencies.
Thank you very much.

colA: If(Cross(MACD(),Mov(MACD(),9,E)),1,If(Cross(Mov(MACD(),9,E),MACD()),-1,0))

Filter: colA=1 or colA=-1

If you used custom MACD parameters elsewhere, you would need to write MACD in its long form rather than using the built-in MACD() function:

Mov(C,12,E)-Mov(C,26,E) is the long form of MACD, you can substitute 12 and 26 with your own parameters.

Hi Pyradius,

Thanks for your advice to which I had revised the formular to...

Col A: If(Cross(Mov(C,22,E)-Mov(C,50,E),Mov(Mov(C,22,E)-Mov(C,50,E),9,E)),1,If(Cross(Mov(Mov(C,22,E)-Mov(C,50,E),9,E),Mov(C,22,E)-Mov(C,50,E)),-1,0))

Filter: colA=1 OR colA=-1

Thanks once again and Happy New Year To you.
Hope you have a wonderful and prosperous year ahead.

Sincerely
Roy
