I was trying to create a scan that picks up positive divergence between MACH Histogram and price on weekly bars, based on the criteria:
"MACD Histogram (12, 26, 9) MACD has increased every bar in the last 3 bars."
and
"Close has decreased every bar in the last 3 bars."

But for some reason this scan generates shares that have positive divergence between MACD (not MACDH) and price. Is this a bug?

The MACD Historgram also draws the MACD - and it looks like it's picking the MACD component to scan on. From the scan criteria editor, select the MACD Histogram, then press the Parameters button. Select Histogram in the first dropdown.
