[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: Zero Lag MACD Exploration

Paul,

That's great!

Okay, I had a chance to look at it with Metastock open and I think 
you will like this one better.

(Fml( "Zero Lag MACD" )
 -LLV(Fml( "Zero Lag MACD" ),48)) 
/(HHV(Fml( "Zero Lag MACD" ),48)
-LLV(Fml( "Zero Lag MACD" ),48)
+.0000001)*100


Basically a normalized Zero Lag MACD. As an indicator you can use 
the following with any indicator, just place your indicator where 
noted and remove the brackets.

{Normalized Indicator}
Ind:= {your indicator here};
Npds:=Input("periods to normalize",
 1,500,48);
Norm:=(Ind-LLV(Ind,Npds))
 /(HHV(Ind,Npds)-LLV(Ind,Npds)+.0000001)*100;
Norm

Enjoy,

Preston
