Can you give me some help with a PCF to find MACD histogram below zero and the most current bar above the bar from last week?

Thanks

That would depend on your MACD settings. You may wish to review the following:

Bruce,

Great video on MACD. I can figure out daily MACD and MACD histogram but still don't have the weekly cracked.

How would you set up a PCF for MACD 12/26/9 to indicate the histogram is below zero and that the current bar is above the last bar?

Many thanks

I found this PCF useful, can I get some help for the opposite, i.e. MACD Histogram above zero and current bar below the last bar? With similar 12-26-9? Thanks.
