Preston, I'm looking for a "relative macd" becasuse this indicator 
woyld be useful for me in a trading system formula which will be applied to 
stocks with different absolute prices. So I need something different - and 
relative - from macd (the moving averages of wich depend from the price of 
stock) in order to apply mi trading ideas.

  Robin,Great ideas! A "Relative MACD" and a MACD are 
  two completely different animals. If you want to see when the MACD is flat 
  there is no need to make it relative.The use of absolute ISTO is a 
  good idea. It actually saves a few steps and allows for both the positive 
  and negative comparison at the same time. I would change the less than 
  argument to less than equal to, like this:If(HHV(Abs(Isto),3)<= 
  0.4,0,1)You might also want to look at ROC as a 
  percentage.Preston--- In
