I want to know the basic formula of the macd trigger line, as far as i know it is the 9 day moving average but how is this number fit to the scale between 1 and -1.
can someone show the formula of this to me.
my whole idea is that i saw the zero lag macd and i need to add this trigger line on to it but if i get plug in the moving average of the stock value then it is not right.
thanks.

As you know the trigger line is a 9-day simple moving average of the MACD which does not have fix boundary.
I have seen someone convert it to an oscillator like RSI or stochastic.

The orignial macd trigger line is not in the range of -1 to +1. The size depends on the (close) value of your security.
one possiblity would be:
Mov(( Mov(C,12,E) - Mov(C,26,E) ) / Mov(C,26,E),9,E)
but I don't know if this is really what you wanted - maybe someone can doublecheck?

Using Vienna's code: maybe something like this:
a1:=Mov(( Mov(C,12,E) - Mov(C,26,E) ) / Mov(C,26,E),9,E);
a2:=(a1>0);
a3:=(a1-Ref(a1,-1)>0);
a2;a3
