Is it possible to get a PCF for the "Leader of the MACD" from TASC July 2008?  I know the indicator is available in SF but I'm looking for a PCF.

Thanks

I don't think so becuase the PCF language doesn't allow you to group operators inside the AVG function. 

This would be the formula, but the sections in bold are not valid.

(AVGC12 - AVG(C-AVGC12 ,12)) - (AVGC26 - AVG(C-AVGC26 ,26))

Please try the following:

2 * XAVGC12 - XAVG(XAVGC12,12) - 2 * XAVGC26 + XAVG(XAVGC26,26)

Hi Bruce,

to practice PCFs I want to write a 50 simple moving average of that formula, but it doesn't quite work:

AVGC(2 * XAVGC12 - XAVG(XAVGC12,12) - 2 * XAVGC26 + XAVG(XAVGC26,26)),50) does not work. Where am I wrong ?

The basic structure should in fact work if you are using TC2000 v17 (but not earlier versions of TC2000). I think you just might have the parentheses wrong.

AVG(2 * XAVGC12 - XAVG(XAVGC12,12) - 2 * XAVGC26 + XAVG(XAVGC26,26), 50)

Also I put "AVGC" instead of "AVG" at the beginning, which was my main mistake. 

Very fast reply, thanks so much!
