You may wish to review the following:

Understanding MACD

You may also wish to try the following formulas:

Raw Exponential MACD(10,30,5) > 0:

XAVGC10 - XAVGC30 > 0

Exponential MACD(10,30,5) Trigger > 0:

XAVG(XAVGC10,5) - XAVG(XAVGC30,5) > 0

Exponential MACD(10,30,5) Histogram > 0:

XAVGC10 - XAVGC30 - XAVG(XAVGC10,5) + XAVG(XAVGC30,5) > 0

The third term's paramaters are switched in the Exponential MACD(10,30,5) Histogram > 0 PCF equation given, when compared to that same formula listed under the hyperlink Understanding MACD. Which is correct?

Thanks.

Both.

XAVG(XAVGCx,y) = XAVG(XAVGCy,x)
