[amibroker] Re: Brain fried, How do I plot a zero line on my MACD

If that's all you needed, the color change would be best.  But, I think the solution I suggested would work... you would still plot/see value very high or low just within a section defined by pane*1/minvalue [at least it has for me].  BTW, presently what is the upper and lower bounds of the MACD in relationship to the height of the pane?  Is it 100% of the pane height?
