[Metastockusers] Re: MACD Histogram Divergence kit satisfaction

"Many people do not totally understand diversion and perhaps they do 
not investigate the errors in your code to the extent that I do."

Perhaps when Mr Brewster learns to spell *divergence*, he may then 
begin to understand the subject he claims to know so much about.


"The MACD Histogram Formula (the one Jose refuses to give to his 
clients):

( Mov( C,12,E ) - Mov( C,26,E ) ) - Mov( ( Mov( C,12,E ) - Mov(
C,26,E ) ),9,E ) "

Laughable argument.   The MACD Histogram code is as much of a secret 
as the MACD formula itself: zilch.  I don't refuse to give it to 
anyone, because this most basic formula is openly available from the 
same source Mr Brewster copied it from:  MetaStock' help file.


End of correspondence on this matter from me.
