Tomasz,

I understand the signal processing issues, what I want to better 
understand is the calculation method ... We'll let the description of 
the methods for DEMA/TEMA/AMA/AMA2/WMA go for now but I would 
appreciate it if you could check into HHV/LLV/HHVBars/LLVBars with 
variable periodicity when you get a chance as these do not appear to 
be working correctly or at least not from my understanding of how 
they should work. SUM/MA/REF seem to be working as expected.

Thanks in advance, Fred
