Cross(Mov(C,10,S),Mov(C,30,S));
in column A with
colA
in the filter will give you every cross that occurred on the last bar of
data.

Changing column A to -
Alert(Cross(Mov(C,10,S),Mov(C,30,S)),3);
will give you every cross that occurred in the last 3 bars

Using
Mov(C,10,S)>Mov(C,30,S));
in column A will give you about 50% of your database - this is not looking
for "cross" but "greater than", so should be avoided unless that is
specifically what you want.

When using exponential moving averages (or Wilders Smoothing) in an
exploration, or any of the numerous functions that use exponential smoothing
internally, you must make sure that you DO NOT use "minimum periods" for
your exploration setup. If you do then your results will not agree with your
charts. There is no problem with simple moving averages but be aware of the
problem.
