Hi everyone,
My friend and I are trying to figure out why the MA3 and LR3 values
gathered from the exploration results do not match with our charts. If
anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.
Here is a follow-up:
Three of the attached files (AB_VLO 5min, 15min, 30min) show the
corresponding AB chart window along with data tooltip window showing
the prices of the AB indicators. The fourth file is a
snapshot of i) the
results of the explore scan and ii) a comparison worksheet I created in Excel (also included this attachment if needed).
I'll now focus on the comparison spreadsheet. As you can see
the columns correspond to the columns in the exploration
scan. The rows are for the AB Exploration results, the AB
data tooltip window results, and from DAE (another charting package I
use).
Comparing the AB Tooltip window line with the DAE line, the results are
almost identical or within a penny (rounding). There is one
exception in column H (99.91 vs 99.82) but I am not going to worry about
this, possibly some outlying data error in one of the two
feeds. Overall, the two packages seem to match very
close. However, when comparing the AB Explore line with
either of the other two lines, the
differences can be seen. In the EMA3(5min) and MLR(5min),
the differences are .06 - .07. In the EMA3(15min) column
there is .12 difference with the AB chart data, and for the MLR3(15min)
there is a .49
difference. Lastly, for the EMA3(30min) column there is a
.59 difference, and for the MLR3(30min) there is a .91 difference.
In summary, the explore results do not compare with the AB data indicators on the chart itself.
Thanks and I will appreciate all the help
