Hello. Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. I very much appreciate it.

Into one Study, I am looking to combine the Sierra Chart "MACD" and "MACD Crossover System" studies found in "Analysis->Studies" and add five “New Studies” that reference data from those studies as follows (I've attached a pic and an excel file that hopefully helps clarify):


A B   C   D   E F   G   H
1 MACD New Study #1   MACD MACD New Study #2   MACD Crossover System  MACD Crossover System
2 MACD MACD[-1]   MA   DIFF DIFF[-1]   BUY   SELL
3   =IF(B3<>B4,B4,IF(B3=B4,C4,0))   =IF(E3<>E4,E4,IF(E3=E4,F4,0))    
4              


Con’t
A  I
1  New Study #3
2  =Buy or Sell
3  =IF(AND(G3=0,G4>0,H3>0,H4=0),1,IF(AND(G3>0,G4=0,H3=0,H4>0),-1,IF(AND(G3=0,G4>0,H3=0,H4=0),1,IF(AND(G3=0,G4=0,H3=0,H4>0),-1,
IF(I4>0,I4+1,IF(I4<0,I4-1,0))))))
4  


Con’t
A  J
1  New Study #4
2  Max of DIFF for Buy or Sell
3 =IF(I3=1,E4,IF(I3=-1,E4,IF(AND(I3>1,E3<>E4,E4>J4),E4,IF(AND(I3>1,E3<>E4,E4<J4),J4,IF(AND(I3>1,E3=E4),J4,
IF(AND(I3<-1,E3<>E4,E4<J4),E4,IF(AND(I3<-1,E3<>E4,E4>J4),J4,IF(AND(I3<-1,E3=E4),J4,0))))))))

1  New Study #5
2  =DIFF[-1]/ Max of DIFF
3  =F3/J3

Your help is most appreciated. Thank you very much for your willingness to help, time and effort.

That all a bit too hard to translate. Happy to help but maybe you show what code you have managed to produce so far and/or a chart screenshot with the conditions you want to mark/set as trade triggers.

By the way that excel file is marked private we cannot see it!

You may also want to have a look at these examples. Post number 8 shows how to translate spreadsheet columns into Bar array indexes.
