Try using a histogram instead and see what you think... Sean

Ok Mike, try this one, it needs only 1 line and uses 0 as trigger, signals are identical: {MACD with default 13-34-89} EMA13:=Input("1. MA", 1, 1000, 13); EMA34:=Input("2. MA", 1, 1000, 34); EMA89:=Input("3. MA", 1, 1000, 89); Mov(C,EMA13,E) - Mov(C,EMA34,E) - Mov((Mov(C,EMA13,E) - Mov(C,EMA34,E)),EMA89,E) Select the histogram style and insert a horizontal line at 0. You can change the parameters to 8-17-9 or simply rewrite the code if you want to use your version, just change the last ";" to "-". Now you've got 1 signal line and 0 is the trigger: period1:=8; period2:=17; period3:=9; Mov(C,period1,E) - Mov(C,period2,E)- Mov((Mov(C,period1,E) - Mov(C,period2,E)),period3,E) I could not find a way to set the color of a line within the indicator formula. Maybe someone else knows ? Jurgen
