 I want to create a personal criteria for a Moving Average 10 crossing through a Moving Average 30
on the upside. Can you help me?

 If the Moving Averages are Simple:

AVGC10 > AVGC30 AND AVGC10.1 <= AVGC30.1

If the Moving Averages are Exponential:

XAVGC10 > XAVGC30 AND XAVGC10.1 <= XAVGC30.1

 How about these same moving averages  - 10 and 30 - crossing each other in either direction? With both the Simple MA and the Exponential MA? Thank you!!!

 For the Simple, the formula would be:

SGN(AVGC10 - AVGC30) <> SGN(AVGC10.1 - AVGC30.1)

For the exponential, you would just need to change AVGC to XAVGC:

SGN(XAVGC10 - XAVGC30) <> SGN(XAVGC10.1 - XAVGC30.1)
