I'm attempting to compare a current value for a MACD slow line to a previous MACD slow line. Basically the code I'm looking for is something along the lines of:

MACD(12,26,9) 60 day low is above the MACD(12,26,9) 60 day low 60 days ago...


The thing I can't figure it is how to compare the 60 day low to the 60 day low "60 days ago"... Anyone know a way I can do this??

thanks a lot!!!

Rammer, I've tried to write similar type filters, trying to compare current high or low readings for indicators to past indicator results and have never been successful. It seems to work only for price.

set{macd_y, macd slowline 60 days ago}
set{macd_yy, new macd_y 60 day low}

macd slowline 60 day low > macd_yy

close > 1
average volume(30) > 10,000
close > open

do not draw macd(12,26,9)

Hey, that's great. I'll see if I can resurrect the old filter I was playing with.
