[amibroker] Re: MACD divergences

Steve,
the MACD() divergence is an alternative of the Stochastic divergence 
in the AFL Library.
The advantage is that no peak()/trough() functions are used, which 
would not operate properly with the negative MACD() values.
The formula is for IB, AA or commentary window.

ST33=MACD();bars=100;d=5;
TR1=LLVBars(ST33,d);
COND1=TR1>0 AND Ref(TR1,-1)==0 AND Ref(ST33,-1)<0;
TR2=IIf(COND1,Ref(ST33,-1),0);
Plot(st33,"MACD",1,8);
M1=ValueWhen(COND1,ST33);
P1=ValueWhen(COND1,LLV(L,3));
DM1=M1-Ref(M1,-1);DP1=P1-Ref(P1,-1);
DT=Ref(BarsSince(COND1),-1);
POSDIV=DM1>0 AND DP1<0 AND DT<BARS;Plot(POSDIV*LastValue(Lowest
(ST33)),"",5,2);

TR11=HHVBars(ST33,d);
COND11=TR11>0 AND Ref(TR11,-1)==0 AND Ref(ST33,-1)>0;
TR21=IIf(COND11,Ref(ST33,-1),0);
M11=ValueWhen(COND11,ST33);
P11=ValueWhen(COND11,HHV(H,3));
DM11=M11-Ref(M11,-1);DP11=P11-Ref(P11,-1);
DT1=Ref(BarsSince(COND11),-1);
NEGDIV=DM11<0 AND DP11>0 AND DT1<BARS;Plot(NEGDIV*LastValue(Highest
(ST33)),"",4,2);
GraphXSpace=5;
Filter=NEGDIV OR POSDIV;
AddColumn(NEGDIV,"BEARISH DIVERGENCE");
AddColumn(POSDIV,"BULLISH DIVERGENCE");
Sell=NEGDIV;
Buy=POSDIV;

Just one final note : Buy/Sell are included for the arrows, it is not 
an independent complete trading system. It is not also a 
recommendation to buy/sell, I just use it frequently and, sometimes, 
I found unique solutions.
It may be also combined with Stochastic divergences. When we see 
both, it is more reliable...
Thank you for your reply
