Hi shaded,
I'm not really sure what it is you are trying to attempt - I find it confusing, what "LONG" and "SHORT" stands for; could you explain what it is you are trying to achieve?
Another thing: you cannot code the colours in MS, it is done manually.

Eduardo.

Oh! You want the MACD Histogram...Here it is:

(Mov(C,12,E) - Mov(C,26,E))-(Mov((Mov(C,12,E) - Mov(C,26,E)),9,E))
You must set the line which will be plotted to bars; this is done in the "style" combo on the "color/style" tab in the indicator window.
Hope this helps.

That's the tricky bit - unlike with, say, Amibroker or Tradestation, with MS you cannot set the colours with a formula - it must be done by hand!
I'm going to do some work on this and get back to you.

OK, here we are.
First, copy the following formula over of the one you've got:

x:=(Mov(C,12,E) - Mov(C,26,E))-(Mov((Mov(C,12,E) - Mov(C,26,E)),9,E));{Histogram}
x1:=If(x>0,x,0);x1;{green}
x2:=If(x<0,x,0);x2;{red}

When you plot the indicator it will give you two lines: one which plots at and above zero, and one which plots at and below zero.
Double clock on the one which plots above zero, and on the "style" combo choose the bars histogram; then on the "colour" combo select green or any other colour of your choosing.
Do the same with the below zero line, selecting your preferred colour.
Save the chart as a template otherwise you'll have to go through this every time you call on the indicator, and call the template instead.
Good luck.

Eduardo.

It really depends on the formula; some are quite tricky and you have to understand the formula written - and some programmers (Jose Silva and Roy Larsen to name two) make the formulas big and complex, and it takes some fiddling about to get it right.
The indicator you asked for is quite straight forward: set two variables and rather than show them as a line, make it appear in two by stating them separately.
MetaStock language is very easy to learn compared to Amibroker or EasyLanguage from TradeStation, but it has also got bigger limitations - there is no loopping expression, for example.
Start by visiting this link:
Formula Primer
Then download the Formula Primer, print it in hard copy and study it.
Then it is just question of practice I guess.
I've got here a couple more links for you to visit:
MetaStockTools.com ; this is Jose Silva's site; check the formula section.
Harness the power of the MetaStock Formula Language ; this si roy Larsen's site; check the Trade Equity formulas and behold!
Traders' Consortium ; you'll find help from programmers such as Jose Silva in this forum.
Hope all this will be of some help!
Have a good one.

Eduardo.

I would suggest that you download and study the Primer on the link above, and take it from there.
Also I suggest that you contact programmers such as Jose Silva on the link above, their experience and ability are well beyond my own.
