screener for MACD histogram momentun change

  Hi, I would like to make a screener to show a when a certain MACD histogram appears first time above ( for a buy) or below (for sell ) the zero line and to scan and display this potential setup on multiple time frames all in one scan like 15m, 30 min, 60min, 4 hr, D, W.

  Is this easy to do?

  I will attach a chart for clearer explanation

  Thanks

  That condition happening exactly at the same time on all these timeframes will not occur very often! Maybe never?

  By the way, it should be easy to test with a code made with the assisted creation, did you try it?

  Hi, I was looking for the signal to show in the screeener on any of the potential timeframes mentioned individually, and then display any and all timeframe signals  in one screener window if possible?

  I also tried to get a 1st histogram ( as per screenshot) either above or below the zero line using the ‘assisted creation’ but I could not get it to work correctly. Any advice?

  This will return 1 when MACD crosses over 0, 2 when it crosses under 0, for any of the following TF’s:

  W=weekly

  D=daily

  4=4 hour

  1=1 hour

  3=30 minutes

  15=15 minutes

  A=all TF’s at the same time, same direction

  I could not test it.

  Very similar to what I came up with!

  result = 0 timeframe(weekly) a = MACD[12,26,9](close) c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 100000 endif if c2 then result = result + 200000 endif timeframe(daily) a = MACD[12,26,9](close) c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 10000 endif if c2 then result = result + 20000 endif timeframe(4 hour) a = MACD[12,26,9](close) c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 1000 endif if c2 then result = result + 2000 endif timeframe(1 hour) a = MACD[12,26,9](close) c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 100 endif if c2 then result = result + 200 endif timeframe(30 minute) a = MACD[12,26,9](close) c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 10 endif if c2 then result = result + 20 endif timeframe(15 minute) a = MACD[12,26,9](close) c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 1 endif if c2 then result = result + 2 endif SCREENER[result](result as "Result")

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75

  result = 0   timeframe(weekly) a = MACD[12,26,9](close)   c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 100000 endif if c2 then result = result + 200000 endif   timeframe(daily) a = MACD[12,26,9](close)   c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 10000 endif if c2 then result = result + 20000 endif   timeframe(4 hour) a = MACD[12,26,9](close)   c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 1000 endif if c2 then result = result + 2000 endif   timeframe(1 hour) a = MACD[12,26,9](close)   c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 100 endif if c2 then result = result + 200 endif   timeframe(30 minute) a = MACD[12,26,9](close)   c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 10 endif if c2 then result = result + 20 endif   timeframe(15 minute) a = MACD[12,26,9](close)   c1 = a > 0 and a[1] < 0 c2 = a < 0 and a[1] > 0 if c1 then result = result + 1 endif if c2 then result = result + 2 endif   SCREENER[result](result as "Result")

  Mine returns a 1 in any position for a cross under and a 2 for a cross over. From weekly down to 15 minute for all your chosen time frames. So 10000 = a weekly cross under and 00020 a 30 minute cross over. 22222 is a crossover in all time frames.
