I'm deriving MACD for a class presentation.  

I calculated EMA12 (XAVGC12) and EMA26 (XAVGC26), and

EMA12 - EMA26 (XAVGC12 - XAVGC26)

I now want to create an indicator that is the XAVG of (EMA12 - EMA26) for a period of 9 bars.  

I'm having trouble with this last calculation; I get error messages.

Can you please help with this PCF.

You can't put an operator (- + * /) inside of an XAVG ( ).  

The formula you're looking for is:

 XAVG(XAVGC12,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26,9)
