In the last issue of TASC on page 32, The Percentage Price Oscillator is described. The use of a trigger line is also used with the PPO. If I create the PPO indicator and the "Trigger" in the same indicator as below, how do I get the indicator to plot both lines?​

​

​

Percentage Price Oscillator I
PPO:= ((Mov(C,12,E ) - Mov(C,26,E))/Mov(C,12,E))*100;
Trigger:= Mov(PPO,9,E);
PPO; Trigger;​

Thanks,

Like this:
PPO:= ((Mov(C ,12,E ) - Mov(C,26,E))/Mov(C,12,E))*100;
Trigger:= Mov(C,9,E);
PPO;
Trigger;
but the lines will plot the same colour, and the Trigger shall never cross the PPO, since the PPO will be the average close of n days,and the Trigger a % difference between different MA of the close, maybe the solution is something like this:
Like this:​

​

Percentage Price Oscillator II
PPO:= ((Mov(C ,12,E ) - Mov(C,26,E))/Mov(C,12,E))*100;
Trigger:= Mov(((Mov(C ,12,E ) - Mov(C,26,E))/Mov(C,12,E))*100,9,E);
PPO;
Trigger;​

​

I would write them as 2 different indicators.
