Hello
I bought the add-on Come to my trading room.
Some of the indicators like impulse or macd histogram don't work properly. They work fine
when you use the templates.
I have tried to copy the formulas from the template to the indicator builder but this don't work. I use metastock 10.

Any idea ?

Thanks

I have it and have not had the same problem. Mine all work fine and I have Metastock 10 also. When you say that the indicators do not work properly can you be more specific?

Hi Shangai

this is the MACD Combo as it appears in the template


and the MACD Combo when I plot it directly from the indicator list


I have the same problem for all others indicators except autoenveloppe and force index

I use Vista and Metastock EOD 10

Thank you very much for your insight

Ah OK I can see your problem. In fact your software is working fine. The values are the same for both. However for the MACD Combo plotted directly what you need to do is to right click > colour/style and under "style" click the histogram symbol. It is not exactly the same as the template as it is only a single colour. Not ideal. For me I started with the templates and deleted what I didn't want and added my own stuff.

I agree with you; unlike with, say, Amibroker, there is no formula to set up colours, it must be done by hand.
A bit of a pain really, but that is the way it is with MetaStock.
