Mike, if you double-click on 1 of the two red lines (might be easier if you zoom in) the properties dialog starts. Click the color/style tab and you're right there; or just select (=single-click) the line and choose format/selected object from the menu Jurgen

You may need to separate the formula into two separate indicators "MACD" period1:=8; period2:=17; Mov(C,period1,E) - Mov(C,period2,E); Mov((Mov(C,period1,E) - Mov(C,period2,E)),period3,E) "MACD Signal" period1:=8; period2:=17; period3:=9; Mov((Mov(C,period1,E) - Mov(C,period2,E)),period3,E) Plot both in the same window, and be sure to use the same scale for both ( IOW, say yes to merge with existing scale when you plot the second one )

mikeman, CatLady is right, no dual colors or styles so you need to do them separate... here's what I do, it allows for easy change of values... it defaults to the 89,34,13 of Beginning TA Hall of Fame... use bars on the histo bdog macd formula: mp1:=Input("Short MA",1,377,13); mp2:=Input("Long MA",1,377,34); Mov(C ,mp1 ,E )- Mov(C ,mp2 ,E ) signal line: mp1:=Input("Short MA",1,377,13); mp2:=Input("Long MA",1,377,34); mp3:=Input("Signal MA",1,377,89); Mov( (Mov(C ,mp1 ,E )- Mov(C ,mp2 ,E )),mp3,E) macd histogram: mp1:=Input("Short MA",1,377,13); mp2:=Input("Long MA",1,377,34); mp3:=Input("Signal MA",1,377,89); (Mov(C,mp1,E)-Mov(C,mp2,E))-(Mov((Mov(C,mp1,E)-Mov(C,mp2,E)),mp3,E))
