You can use indicator builder and do something like this and plug in values of your choice..

(mov(c,short period,e) - mov(c,long period,e))-
mov(c,trigger,e)

  Thank you Roy for your detailed reply.

  I found it. Is it possible to obtain the conventional 12/26/9 MACD
  values in Metastock, where you can see the Histogram along with the
