Hello,
 
The formula does not plot anything exceptflat 
line because your formula
calculates SINGLE value not an array.
Please take a look at the sample indicator I 
presented in scripting documentation:
It generates an ARRAY of results. This isthe main 
difference between writing indicators
in pure AFL that processes arrays 
internally that makes writing indicators A LOT easier.
On the other hand scripting in AFL gives 
you more flexibility but you must iterate
thru and generate result arrays 
by yourself.  
EnableScript("jscript");
<%
close = VBArray( AFL( "close" ) ).toArray();output = new Array();// initialize first element
output[ 0 ] = close[ 0 ];// perform the loop thatcalculates exponential moving average
factor = 0.05;
for( i = 1; i < close.length; i++ )
{
output[ i ] = factor * close[ i ] + (1 - factor) * output[ i - 1 ];
}
AFL.Var("graph0") = close;
AFL.Var("graph1") = output;%>
WriteVal( graph1 );
