In MS v8, simply drag 'n drop the Fib retracement from the line 
studies toolbar onto a chart, then right mouse click on any of the 
Fib lines on ur chart, and choose properties, under the retracement 
line tab, simply add the values you want, in ur case +14 +78 +123 and 
+150 values respectively using the input box and the add button. When 
u click apply the addition fib values should appear.

I am uncertain whether MS can save these new values as defaults for 
the fib indicator, but if you save each chart as a smartchart - it 
remembers the extra fib values on that particular chart.

Assuming you're talking indicators - try something like the ffg in 
Metastock formula language (using MS v8 in my case)

Upperlimit:=Input("Upper limit periods",50,100,75);
Lowerlimit:=Input("Lower limit periods",1,49,15);
Upperlimit*2;
Lowerlimit/2;
