The following code is not working. Can someone tell me how to get arrows on the screen when the Macd generates a buy or sell signal?

temp4 = MacdExtSignal(12,_MaEma,26,_MaEma,9,_MaEma);
a = cross(temp4, 0);
plotarrow(a,a,belowLow,colorRed);

The above code plots and arrow when the Macd crosses above the zero line.
You plot the Macd line and get a visual confirmation.

What do you mean by "Macd generates a buy or sell signal", how do you define that?

I figured it out. It should have been

temp4 = MacdExtSignal(12,_MaEma,26,_MaEma,9,_MaEma);
a = cross(temp4, 0);
plotarrow(a,a,belowLow,colorRed);
a = cross(0,temp4);
plotarrow(a,a,belowLow,colorRed);

Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
