I am trying to replace one of my Exploration columns from one comparison to another.

What I have now is basically recording how many weeks (weekly chart being used) the MACD has crossed over zero and is positive (or it shows a 0)

If(MACD()>0,BarsSince(MACD()<=0),0)

That works fine.  But, I want to use one of my custom formulas so its function is:

Fml("POWER Testing")

If I change MACD to that it looks like:

If(Fml("POWER Testing")()>0,BarsSince(Fml("POWER Testing")()<=0),0)

However every time I try that it says the function needs to be immediately followed by  (

Any ideas how to format that right?

Hi,

It looks like you'd probably want to get rid of both sets of ( ) at the end of your FML calls:

Code:
If(Fml("POWER Testing")>0,BarsSince(Fml("POWER Testing")<=0),0)
