MACD or the histogram?
(what are you calling bullish?)
 
What are your MACD settings?
(length/smoothing)
 
Any 5 days bullish or do you want
6 days ago to be bearish?
(only the last 5 days)
 
 
Thanks

If you are using an Simple MACD 12,26,9 the pcf would be:

AVGC12 - AVGC26 > AVG(AVGC12,9) - AVG(AVGC26,9) AND (AVGC12.1 - AVGC26.1 < AVG(AVGC12.1,9) - AVG(AVGC26.1,9) OR AVGC12.2 - AVGC26.2 < AVG(AVGC12.2,9) - AVG(AVGC26.2,9) OR AVGC12.3 - AVGC26.3 < AVG(AVGC12.3,9) - AVG(AVGC26.3,9) OR AVGC12.4 - AVGC26.4 < AVG(AVGC12.4,9) - AVG(AVGC26.4,9) OR AVGC12.5 - AVGC26.5 < AVG(AVGC12.5,9) - AVG(AVGC26.5,9))


If you are using an Exponential MACD 12,26,9 the pcf would be:

XAVGC12 - XAVGC26 > XAVG(XAVGC12,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26,9) AND (XAVGC12.1 - XAVGC26.1 < XAVG(XAVGC12.1,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.1,9) OR XAVGC12.2 - XAVGC26.2 < XAVG(XAVGC12.2,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.2,9) OR XAVGC12.3 - XAVGC26.3 < XAVG(XAVGC12.3,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.3,9) OR XAVGC12.4 - XAVGC26.4 < XAVG(XAVGC12.4,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.4,9) OR XAVGC12.5 - XAVGC26.5 < XAVG(XAVGC12.5,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.5,9))

Make Sure "Plot MACD as a Histogram" and have "visible" checked
Try the following PCF:
 
(XAVGC4 - XAVGC13) > XAVG(XAVGC4,8) - XAVG(XAVGC13,8) AND (XAVGC4.1 - XAVGC13.1 < XAVG(XAVGC4.1,8) - XAVG(XAVGC13.1,8) OR XAVGC4.2 - XAVGC13.2 < XAVG(XAVGC4.2,8) - XAVG(XAVGC13.2,8) OR XAVGC4.3 - XAVGC13.3 < XAVG(XAVGC4.3,8) - XAVG(XAVGC13.3,8) OR XAVGC4.4 - XAVGC13.4 < XAVG(XAVGC4.4,8) - XAVG(XAVGC13.4,8) OR XAVGC4.5 - XAVGC13.5 < XAVG(XAVGC4.5,8) - XAVG(XAVGC13.5,8))
 
MACD Histogram Crossing from Negative to Positive Today:
 
(XAVGC4 - XAVGC13) > (XAVG(XAVGC8,4) - XAVG(XAVGC13,8)) AND (XAVGC4.1 - XAVGC13.1) < (XAVG(XAVGC8.1,4) - XAVG(XAVGC13.1,8))
