In using a 12, 26, 9 MACD, I would like a scan for stocks when the MACD lines cross each other up or down.  A example would be POT where on 4/2/008, 4/3/08 the line crossed up and on 4/29/08 the line crossed down.  Would like scan for daily and weekly charts.  Is this possible?

Please try one or more of the following:

Exponential MACD 12,26,9 xUp Signal:

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

Exponential MACD 12,26,9 xDn Signal:

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

Exponential MACD 12,26,9 crossing Signal (either direction):

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