 Can anyone give me a starting point to write the code to plot MACD of volume rather than the standard MACD of price?

 I dont think you can calc the ema of the volume... you can do a simple moving average of the volume
 
 you would use the 12 and the 26 with the 9 as a signal.

 Your last set statement needs a "}" to close it.  This is why no stocks are being returned.  Look at the Debug function in the filters.
 
 I would try something like this:
 
 
 
 
 Herein lies the problem with the idea of a MACD for volume - it does not distinguish between large UP days and large DOWN days - all volume is seen as positive.
 
 Be careful of this if you try to use this approach with your cash.
