Please try the following if you are interested in the MACD crossing up.

XAVGC12 - XAVGC26 >= XAVG(XAVGC12,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26,9) AND XAVGC12.1 - XAVGC26.1 < XAVG(XAVGC12.1,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.1,9)

The following if you are interested in the MACD crossing down.

XAVGC12 - XAVGC26 <= XAVG(XAVGC12,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26,9) AND XAVGC12.1 - XAVGC26.1 > XAVG(XAVGC12.1,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26.1,9)

And the following if you do not carry which direction the cross happens.

SGN(XAVGC12 - XAVGC26 - XAVG(XAVGC12,9) + XAVG(XAVGC26,9)) <> SGNXAVGC12.1 - XAVGC26.1 - XAVG(XAVGC12.1,9) + XAVG(XAVGC26.1,9))
