I need help to program a flip-signal to separate the negative signal from the negative and reverse it ?

I have no idea what you want, but take a look at flipping functions flipud() and fliplr(), as well as masking:
negIndexes = signal < 0;
negValuesOnly = signal(negIndexes); % Extract neg values only, or...
% Set negative values to zero (masking)
noNegatives = signal; % Initialize.
noNegatives(negIndexes) = 0; % Set negatives to zero, positives remain as-is.
% Reverse the signal horizontally
reversedSignal = fliplr(signal);
% Invert the signal vertically
signal = max(signal) - signal;

@Image Analyst, for inversion of a signal vertically why do you subtract it from the maximum value? Does it not simply the postive values becomes and negative and vice-versa?

You don't have to. You could simply negate it. Like I said, I didn't know what the original poster really wanted.

to flip the signal about the x-axis (negatives to positives and vice versa), simply use the function gnegate (x).
Where X is the signal you're flipping.
This turns all peaks to troughs and all troughs to peaks.
