Example
per=10+Cum(1)%10;
Plot(EMA(C,per),"",7,1);
will not function, since EMA does not accept variable per.
But, you may see it [and use it] with

per=10+Cum(1)%10;
smooth=2/(per+1);
W=AMA(C,smooth);

Play a little with
per=10+Cum(1)%10;
smooth=2/(per+1);
W=AMA(C,smooth);
Plot(W,"",4,8);Plot(EMA(C,10),"",5,1);Plot(EMA(C,20),"",5,1);
it is interesting.
