Pushin' the iron to the pedal.........

The trade sytem described cannot be created in MSK.

For #1. This will be impossible to do so since that the MACD-histogram
              is only a viewable on Chart indicator, eg the MACD indicator now
              plotted in the waving histogram bars for its Style plot.
              However, you can use the underlay, the MACD indicator, and a
              weekly Chart that also has to be the Active Open chart
Enter Long
HHV(MACD(),1)>Ref(HHV(MACD(),1),-1)

For #2. See #1 and create a "P" indicator(now holding the #1 formula).
              1st  -plot a custom HHV(MACD(),1)>Ref(HHV(MACD(),1),-1)
                       indicator in the weekly S&P Chart
              2nd -select this custom indicator and click Copy
              3td  -In the Active weekly Microsoft Chart click Window|New Inner Window
                       and Paste this custom's Copy to this new inner window
              4th  -create the P indicator and drop it on the new inner window's plot
              5th  -The Enter Long formula will by default calculate on the Base
                       Security(Microsoft) and will for its calculations also now use
                       the P indicator(S&P) 
Enter Long
HHV(MACD(),1)>Ref(HHV(MACD(),1),-1) AND P>Ref(P,-1)

For #3. See #1 and #2 and note that the SystemTester will only calculate
             on the Active Chart's Base Security, which if it is a weekly plot, will
             also return "weekly" values.
             So the answer is: Basicaly out of the question.
             However, for alternative, you can use an average of a weekly value
             applied to a (weekly) oscillator instead.          
Enter Long
HHV(MACD(),1)>Ref(HHV(MACD(),1),-1) AND P>Ref(P,-1) AND
CMO(Typical(),1)>Ref(CMO(Typical(),1),-1)
