Trying to write a formula in 12.2 where MACD (X and S) is greater than the moving average today but was less than the moving average 5 days ago.

A Condition Formula for the Exponential MACD Histogram being above zero currently but below zero 5-bars ago could be written as (this is the same as the MACD being above its moving average now, but below it 5-bars ago):

XAVGC12 - XAVGC26 > XAVG(XAVGC12,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26,9) AND XAVGC12.5 - XAVGC26.5 < XAVG(XAVGC12.5,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.5,9)

A Simple version of this formula would just get rid of all six Xs in the formula.
