refer to macd diff calc

[sub5mango]

Hi

How do I refer to the MACD histogram / the Diff plot/calc from another indicator:

I have tried these but to no avail:
MACD(12,26,9)[0].Diff

MACD.Diff(12,26,9)[0]

Thanks in advance.

I would like to use this value in a strategy (<---new to strategy building)

double value = MACD(12, 26, 9).Diff[0];

and my question is 'is the zero in the line above referring to the offset, ie bars back....?

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for your note.

Yes this is correct. 0 would be current bar and 1 here would be the previous bar, so on and so forth.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
