the coolestdude,
I think your problem is with the understanding of arrays - look up in the
user guide.
In the meantime
try this it might be what you want.
Buy = Cross(Signal(),MACD());
Sell = Cross(MACD(), Signal());
Filter = Buy OR Sell;
AddColumn(iif(buy, BuyPrice, null),"buy price", 10.2);
AddColumn(if(sell, SellPrice, null),"sell price",10.2);
//this line doesnt work. - use backtester or Equity() -
AddColumn(BuyPrice-SellPrice,"profit",10.2);

i was expecting to see a column with all the buy prices and since
the formula won't trigger on the same day all the sell prices in the
next column. they should both be different prices. for instance
the price of the stock at the close when all buy criteria is met and
the price of the stock at the close when all sell criteria is met
for the trade to close out. this way i can look and see profit and
loss.
