Hi, I'm not a programmer in any way, but I'm trying to create a simple triangular oscillator indicator that oscillates around 0 in SC and am not sure where to start. I have the formula (EUR/USD - EUR/GBP * GBP/USD = 0) or (log(EUR/USD) - log(EUR/GBP) - log(GBP/USD) = 0). Either formula will work. But I don't know where to start.

Is there an indicator template somewhere that can get me started? Or maybe a way to create the indicator in MS Excel which I'm more familiar with? Also not sure how to reference 3 different instruments in an indicator. Any help is appreciated.

If you are familiar with Excel, then you should be able to do what you want using the Spreadsheet Study study.
