MACD conditions in an indicator

[mate41]

Hello,
i've a question about macd conditions:
condition1: macd crossing above slow ema (12)
condition2: macd crossing below fast ema (26)
How can i set these conditions ?

Just replied to your other thread as well, either you could completely custom code those conditions using the CrossAbove / CrossBelow methods or you setup a strategy with those conditions and then 'view' its code and copy over the snippets needed for your indicator.

Thanks Bertrand for the suggestion,
but it didn't help me and it's the first time i'm in touch with this strategy wizard.
I want to know when the macd is above the ema(12)(fast) and when the macd is below the ema(26)(slow).

Ok, so what exactly did you setup then for those conditions, can you please take a screenshot for us?

Bertrand,
attached a screenshot.
As you can see:
the green line is the fast (ema(12)) from macd
the red line is the slow (ema(26)) from macd
the dots are the macd.
What i want is a signal
- when the macd (dots) are above the green line (ema(12))
- when the macd (dots) are below the red line (ema(26))

Never IN the green shadow nor ON the green/red lines

The purpose is to have only the price panel to trade with the necessary signals from certain indicators. This would then be only once indicator as overlay on my price panel.

mate41, then you would need to custom code this either in an indicator or strategy, you can access the values of those plots from the study you reference. If you haven't custom coded before I would recommend you taking a look at those tutorials here to get more familiar :

Alternatively the signal could also be setup in the wizard :

Solved

Bertrand,
i know these links.
I have solved it by enlarge the macd deviation from the trigger lines.

Glad to hear you could resolve it for you.
