Hi there,
It seems to be that you want something like this:
stp:=12; {periods of the short-term ema}
ltp:=26; {periods of the long-term ema}
slp:=9; {periods of the MACD's signal line}
g:=3; {periods of consecutive higher values of the MACD's Histogram}
r:=3; {periods of consecutive lower values of the MACD's Histogram}
md:=mov(c,stp,e)-mov(c,ltp,e); {This is MACD}
mmd:=mov(md,slp,e); {MACD's singal line}
mdh:=md-mmd; {MACD's Histogram}
rmd:=roc(mdh,1,$); {Roc of MACD's Histogram}
buy:=rmd>0 and barssince(ref(rmd>0,-1))>=r; {We buy when we have
MACD's Histogram turning up plus there have been r-bars of MACD
Histogram consecutive lower values}
sell:=rmd<0 and barssince(ref(rmd<0,-1))>=g; {we sell when we have
MACD's Histogram turning down plus there have been g-bars of MACD's
Histogram consecutive higher values)
Please note, that a) I don't have metaStock on this pc, so I didn't
actually check the validity of the code and b) I'm not quite sure that
this is what is described in the link that was given.
Regards,
mc
