Converging Moving averages detection using Explorer

Is it possible to write an explorer to detect the last occasion 2 converging moving averages crossed each other? say Wilders(15) and a SMA60 in 60min TF.
ValueWhen(1,cross(Wilders(C,15),Mov(C,60,S)),C)
is this correct? I would assume that this would tell me when the cross had occurred...but how about a way to detect 2 converging averages that has the potential to intersect?

You'll need to identify ALL of the conditions which would lead the two indicators to cross, starting with: Code:
ind1<ind2 AND roc(ind1,1,%)>roc(ind2,1,%)

The MACD indicator is the spread between 2 MA's and a signal line of the spread. When the spread crosses above 0, the faster MA is Greater than the slower MA

Have a look at the MACD indicator
Moving Average Convergence Divergence
In the help files of metastock, lookup MACD under indicators
