In the attached NT8 MACD script, the line plot order was changed to plot the MACD Differential histogram first, then MACD Average above that, then MACD on top of all. After the plot order change, the Diff histogram and the MACD Average functions and plots as desired, but the MACD line does not plot. I must be missing something simple. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Hello,
The AddPlot(Brushes.Red, "Macd"); would generate Values[2].
I see Macd is returning Values[2].
public Series<double> Macd { get { return Values[2]; } }
I don't see anywhere Macd[0] or Values[2][0] is being assigned a value.
If there is no value assigned, no value will plot..
The line:
double Macd = MACD(Fast, Slow, Smooth)[0];
Makes a localized double value and makes the series inaccessible. Trying using a different name for the local variable within the scope of OnBarUpdate.

ChelseaB, that was it.
At AddPlot, changed "Macd" to "MacdValue"
Changed "Value[0] = Macd;" to "MacdValue[0] = Macd;"
At Values[2], changed "Macd" to "MacdValue",
At "double priorMacd = Value[1];", changed to "double priorMacd = MacdValue[1];"
Now the Macd line plots. Thank you very much!!
Attached is the working file.Attached Files
