Hi folks, I realize I am new. I apologize for asking before giving, but I need some help.

I need to create 2 formulas for buy/sell alerts... as follows:

 

A sell alert when Close is below the following EMA's (combined) for at least 1 bar (candlestick)
13, 30, 50, 100, 200 and the following formual already in MetaStock Experts as - Cross(Mov(MACD(),9,E),MACD())

A buy alert when Close is above the following EMA's (combined) for at least 1 bar (candlestick)

13, 30, 50, 100, 200 and the following formual already in MetaStock Experts as - Cross(MACD(),Mov(MACD(),9,E))

I really appreciate any help on this.

Thanks
TF

Hi TF,

Have a read of the MS Users Manual and download the Equis Formula Primer from the files section and complete all the exercises contained therein.  From there you will be able to complete this programming task.

You need to combine comparative operations; easily achieved using the AND function, or by summing (+) each condition: e.g.

cond1 AND cond2 AND cond3

or

cond1 + cond2 + cond3 = 3


Hope this helps.
