For "Prices Falling"  using Max Line
When I write the code:
'# MoMo = chart.MaxorMinofLine (vary period with user input)
'# If Price.Close < MoMo.Value then Pass
The compiler allows the condition but it neither Paints Scans or allows Markers.

Similary For "MACD Rising"  using MIN Line If I write a separate piece of code I obtain another non functioning condition. Usually the compiler just tell me I don't know what I a doing which is TRUE but it allows this code to produce a viewable condition light??

'# MH = chart.MACDHistogram
'# MoMo = chart.MaxorMinofLine.3(vary period with user Input.

'# If MH.Value > MoMo.Value then Pass

I wrote this code as separate pieces to see if the the code would work  in pieces before I tried to do the following Condition:

If "Prices are Falling" and "MACD"  is rising then Pass. 
What I really would like to see to use this for  scan purposes is: when the condition is no longer true when the Price today again becomes equal to the MoMo line.

Thanks James

The '# at the beginning of the line is commenting it out. I suspect you want something similar to the following (one assumes the Min or Max of Line Indicators are set so your original logic at least would do what you want):

'# MoMo = chart.MaxorMinofLine
'# MH = chart.MACDHistogram
'# MoMoMACD = chart.MaxorMinofLine.3
If Price.Close < MoMo.Value AndAlso MH.Value > MoMoMACD.Value Then Pass

Thanks Bruce
It is amazing what one does not observe when reading someone elses code that works.  I just had not clued in that ' was a comment marker.  You are a great frustration remover!
