Hi Bev, Yes, I do use MACD in my 56 point system. It's a subcomponent of a comprehensive moving average environment within the system. I didn't use it at all for the ASHW buy though. The PGDCEB is entirely seperate from the 56 pt. TA. The dovetailing of MACD positive divergence and the PGDCEB signal I used is something I will look into. I also have a killer MACD signal for long term trend buys that I use in concert with volume verification as a standalone signal.. Of course the MACD signal involves the use of trend lines within the MACD rather than the usual MACD stuff and there is a period as the signal approaches where it gets quite "touch and go" but when the signal is a good one, it is a REALLY good one. The method is actually the next one that I was considering to publicize. If I get enough pressure, I'll probably do so using several examples that should get the idea across. Maybe later next week. Thanks for the trend line compliment, Doug R
