I posted an rsi divergence filter... you can modify that to use MACD.

Haven't looked at TRO's solution but here's one way to go about it. Using the "indposition" indicator you can look at the last X number of days and compare macd to price. My example looks at the last 65 days (approx 3 mos trading days only). If the indposition of close equals 0 that means close has reached a new 65 day low. If macd is above 0 at the same time, that means macd has diverged with the close. NOTE: For some reason I was not able to get consistent results using the "low" price. Have an e-mail into support to find out why. HTH:
