Demir,
The chart of the MACD you sent looks like it has a slower trigger line than 
what the buy and sell arrows show. How many moving average periods have you 
selected for the chart and when you optimised the system test how many 
moving average periods did the test results show? I suspect they are 
different. Look at the system test results and check for the number of 
moving average periods. Whatever the figure shows there you can alter your 
chart "Signal Time Periods" so they are the same. Then the chart crossovers 
and buy/sell signals should be in tune.
BTW..there is a canned MACD System Test in Metastock as follows:
Enter Long
MACD() > Mov( MACD(), opt1, EXPONENTIAL)

Close Long
MACD() < Mov( MACD(), opt1, EXPONENTIAL)

regards,
Ian Burgoyne
