<DIV><FONT size=2>Error can be caused by:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-missing characters, eg your 39th and 40th days weren't
followed by the '+' (plus character), and</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> as such the formula will be read as though everything else that
follows next ALSO belongs to your 39th day</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>-try not to use numbers in a variable's name</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>-refrain from using capitol letters for small letters; eg do not use n for
N (or vice versa)</DIV>
<DIV>-avoid too long variable formula's, eg split formula into some more,
now shorter variables</DIV>
<DIV>-visualy break the formula's with Indented Lines, eg use CTRL+TAB (Formula

<DIV><FONT size=2>I know this question was asked some time ago but I can't
find the answer in my archives. When plotting simple moving
averages[50,200,etc] I'm getting results that differ when compared to
identical simple moving averages plotted by other programs. The other
comparisons are identical with each other but differ by a wide margin
when compared to MetaStock's . Is this a problem with my software or am I
incorrectly plotting this average somehow? Could it be an incorrect default
setting for an ending date or what? Thank

<DIV>Does it help to factor out the division by 2? The calculation would
be more efficient that way as well.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For example:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
s1:=((n-1)/2)*C+((n-3)/2)*Ref(C,-1)+((n-5)/2)*Ref(C,-2)+((n-7)/2)*Ref(C,-3)+ ...
+((n-99)/2)*Ref(C,-49);</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>would become:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
s1:=((n-1)*C+(n-3)*Ref(C,-1)+(n-5)*Ref(C,-2)+(n-7)*Ref(C,-3)+ ...
+(n-99)*Ref(C,-49)/2;</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm confused why you use the variable "n" in the formula, if it's going to
be fixed in length (because of the 50 elements in the summation). Wouldn't
it be easier to code:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>
<DIV>
s1:=(49*C+47*Ref(C,-1)+45*Ref(C,-2)+43*Ref(C,-3)+ ...
-49*Ref(C,-49))/2;</DIV></FONT></DIV>
