Elementary math.

MACD fluctuates between positive and negative values, often crossing
through zero. You code contains DIVISION by MACD, thus
division BY ZERO.
ANY number divided by zero results in +/- INFINITY.

excusme, TJ,buy i've tried previosly also whith same efect's.

also hidden macd plot and only displaying roc (original or
calculated)  allways have similar results.it don't be a (more or
less) "smooth" plot at all.

i've just retried with
k=Ref (MACD(5,13),-3);
j=MACD (5,13);
r= (k-j)/k;

code lines and is the same

can you put a graph of that¿?

thanks
