I need to input a formula for the 50 day MACD crossing over the 200 day MACD. Is it possible to get some help on this along with all of the mechanics of putting this in my system

Thanks

I do not understand what you mean by a 50 day MACD or 200 day MACD. MACDs have at least two parameters (for the raw MACD) and usually 3 (to calculate the Trigger and/or Histogram).

Bruce,

Sorry about the confusion I may have caused. Herin lies the hazards of trying to multi task at my age. My question does involve an MACD of 32,53,9. Same basic question as before. Looking for crossover help

Jim

Welcome to the forums. A very good foundation for learning how to use TeleChart can be gained by reviewing the following:

If you are new to TeleChart READ THIS FIRST!

A formula for the raw Exponential MACD 32,53 crossing up through zero would be:

XAVGC32 > XAVGC53 AND XAVGC32.1 <= XAVGC53.1

A formula for the raw Exponential MACD 32,53 crossing down through zero would be:

XAVGC32 < XAVGC53 AND XAVGC32.1 >= XAVGC53.1

A formula for the raw Exponential MACD 32,53 crossing through zero in either direction would be:

SGN(XAVGC32 - XAVGC53) <> SGN(XAVGC32.1 - XAVGC53.1)

A formula for the Exponential MACD 32,53,9 Signal Line crossing up through zero would be:

XAVG(XAVGC32,9) > XAVG(XAVGC53,9) AND XAVG(XAVGC32.1,9) <= XAVG(XAVGC53.1,9)

A formula for the Exponential MACD 32,53,9 Signal Line crossing down through zero would be:

XAVG(XAVGC32,9) < XAVG(XAVGC53,9) AND XAVG(XAVGC32.1,9) >= XAVG(XAVGC53.1,9)

A formula for the Exponential MACD 32,53,9 Signal Line crossing through zero in either direction would be:

SGN(XAVG(XAVGC32,9) - XAVG(XAVGC53,9)) <> SGN(XAVG(XAVGC32.1,9) - XAVG(XAVGC53.1,9))

A formula for the Exponential MACD 32,53,9 Histogram crossing up through zero would be (this would be the same as the raw MACD crossing up through its Moving Average Signal Line):

XAVGC32 + XAVG(XAVGC53,9) > XAVGC53 + XAVG(XAVGC32,9) AND XAVGC32.1 + XAVG(XAVGC53.1,9) <= XAVGC53.1 + XAVG(XAVGC32.1,9)

A formula for the Exponential MACD 32,53,9 Histogram crossing down through zero would be (this would be the same as the raw MACD crossing down through its Moving Average Signal Line):

XAVGC32 + XAVG(XAVGC53,9) < XAVGC53 + XAVG(XAVGC32,9) AND XAVGC32.1 + XAVG(XAVGC53.1,9) >= XAVGC53.1 + XAVG(XAVGC32.1,9)

A formula for the Exponential MACD 32,53,9 Histogram crossing through zero in either direction would be (this would be the same as the raw MACD crossing through its Moving Average Signal Line in either direction):

SGN(XAVGC32 - XAVGC53 - XAVG(XAVGC32,9) + XAVG(XAVGC53,9)) <> SGN(XAVGC32.1 - XAVGC53.1 - XAVG(XAVGC32.1,9) + XAVG(XAVGC53.1,9))
