I think you have an 
error in
 "The 
interpretation of the indicator output is as follows:- .08 (80%) and lower 
is divergence between the Close and the MACD"
<SPAN 
class=252123304-08062002> 
either .08 should be 
.80 or (80%) should be 8%
<SPAN

Which do you 
mean?

  and an Indicator for MACD and RSI(14)
  
  
  Maurice,
   
  I will provide the code for a RSI(14) diveregence as well as a 
  MACD(12,26,--) divergence.  
  Sorry, it took a few days to locate. Out of town most of the week 
  (Newport Beach) with day job.
   
  Attachment will show how it is used.  
   
  This formula shows divergence between price and the indicator not the 
  trend line divergence you 
  may be looking for when their are say increasing price peaks and 
  decreasing indicator peaks as 
  a leading indicator for a potetial price reversal.
   
  Divergence Between the Close and an Indicator 
   
   The following formula will calculate the correlation of the Close 
  andthe MACD. It is written 
  using a "long form" MACD so that the time periods used by the MACD may be 
  changed. 
  This indicator shows "divergence" between the close and the 
  indicator:
   
  Divergence Between the Close and MACD
   
  Correl(((Sum(Cum(1)*(Mov(C,12,E)-Mov(C,26,E)),100))-(Sum(Cum(1),100)*Sum((Mov(C,12,E)-Mov(C,26,E)),100)/100))/((Sum(Power(Cum(1),2),100))-(Power(Sum(Cum(1),100),2)/100)),((Sum(Cum(1)*C,100))-(Sum(Cum(1),100)*Sum(C,100)/100))/((Sum(Power(Cum(1),2),100))-(Power(Sum(Cum(1),100),2)/100)),12,0)
   
   The interpretation of the indicator output is as follows:
   
  *** .8 (80% would givre a stock divergence*** .08 (8%) and lower is 
  divergence starting between the Close and the MACD.
  - 1 is very strong divergence.+ 1 is very strong 
  correlation.
   
  The formula was constructed this way so that most other indicators maybe 
  used in place of the MACD.For example here is the same indicator using the 
  RSI(14): Divergence Between the Close and 
  RSI
   
  Correl(((Sum(Cum(1)*(RSI(14)),100))-(Sum(Cum(1),100)*Sum((RSI(14)),100)/100))/((Sum(Power(Cum(1),2),100))-(Power(Sum(Cum(1),100),2)/100)),((Sum(Cum(1)*C,100))-(Sum(Cum(1),100)*Sum(C,100)/100))/((Sum(Power(Cum(1),2),100))-(Power(Sum(Cum(1),100),2)/100)),12,0)
