I use a MACD of Short 8, Long 17, Period 9. I want to create a PCF that looks for MACD as high as possible, and another one that looks for MACD as low as possible, both for use as a condition in an Easy Scan. Can you help? Thanks.

I am not sure what you mean by as high or as low as possible - MACD is an unbound indicator and has no upper or lower limits.

Do you mean the highest its been in X days?

If so, over how many days should we look to find the highest/lowest?

Yes. The highest or lowest it has been in the past 5 days. Hope that helps. Thanks.
