MACD of another indicator

Hello guys,

i managed to add a MA to an indicator, using the MAOnBuffer,

now i need to create a MACD of the same buffer, so i want to have an MA and a MACD on the same indicator

i tried the iMACD, but i'm getting weird results, i'm not sure if iMACD can be applied to indictor buffers

anyone can give a hint or help with this issue ??

Thanks!

What is MAOnBuffer?

#include <MovingAverages.mqh>

switch(*MA MODE*)
  {
   case MODE_EMA:
      ExponentialMAOnBuffer(rates_total,prev_calculated,begin,*MA period*,*indicator buffer*,*MA buffer*);
      break;
   case MODE_LWMA:
      LinearWeightedMAOnBuffer(rates_total,prev_calculated,begin,*MA period*,*indicator buffer*,*MA buffer*);
      break;
   case MODE_SMA:
      SimpleMAOnBuffer(rates_total,prev_calculated,begin,*MA period*,*indicator buffer*,*MA buffer*);
      break;
   case MODE_SMMA:
      SmoothedMAOnBuffer(rates_total,prev_calculated,begin,*MA period*,*indicator buffer*,*MA buffer*);
      break;
  }

If you study how the MACD is calculated, then you would know. Do some homework and research.

MACD is difference between a fast and a slow EMA, and the signal is an EMA of the difference.
