Thanks Rakesh,
    I checked them out and they seem to be the same. I
said seems because I 
might be missing something small that I wouldn't recognize because of my

inexperience, BUT it sure looks the same. 
    Below is the post that OI copied the indicators
from.
Thanks for any help you might be able to offer.

Hi Hal,

Here is how I construct my MetaStock version of Robert Cumming's
4MACD.  
Again the multipliers for MACDBlue and MACDYellow are necessary for
MetaStock 
I believe because of the differences in the way TC-2000 and MetaStock
handle 
the MACD function and differences in the way they scale charts. 

Each stock has a different multiplier, but I have found the below
settings to 
work well enough for most stocks in general. If you want a perfect match
with 
the TC-2000 version you have to play with the yellow and blue
multipliers. 

Below are the formulas for 4 different MACD indicators (MACDBlue,
MACDRed, 
MACDYellow, and MACDGreen).  Each should be saved to a different
indicator 
via MetaStock's Indicator Builder.  You should be able to copy and
paste into 
Indicator Builder from this e-mail.  Once you have all four
indicators 
installed, grab the MACDBlue indicator and place it into a new window on
a 
chart.  Then change its color to blue.  Leave it as a line
graph for now 
(very important).  Then grab and drop MACDRed into the same window
and change 
its color to red.  Again leave it as a line graph (very
important).  Then 
grab and drop MACDYellow into the same window and change its color to
yellow. 
Again leave it as a line function (very important).  It MetaStock
asks you 
about scaling tell it to use the same scaling on the right.  Then
grab and 
drop MACDGreen into the same window and change its color to green. 
Now right 
click on the blue line and select MACDBlue properties.  Now change
it to a 
histogram and select the second thickness.  Do the same procedure
for 
MACDRed, MACDYellow and MACDGreen in that order (very important). 
That 
should set it up.

Jim
