Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] Re: MACD Histogram Cycle and Trigger with 4 Green 1 Red or 4 Red 1 Green, MetaStock Email Archive

Hi Preston

My "not tally" mean " the number of green bars or red bars are not the same as for the 2 charts " Example as follow:

1st to 10th bars (from Right) are all RED in Chartnexus but it shows 4 Green & 6 "Red" in Metastock

It seems that they are some comparison on the price data between as the trigger is formulated when the barschanged from red to green & vise versa . The Chartnexus web shows some info on MACD Histogram cycle but may not be detail enough .

http://www.chartnexus.com/learning/manual/add-ons/node26.html#SECTION004116000000000000000

Hope It is not too troubling u to help me on this formula

Alvin,

What I gave you will work just like the pic.

In order to get the style and colors you want you must right click
on the indicator and change to the color and style that you want.
This is covered in the users manual as well.
