"pds:=If(pds>Cum(x<>-101)-VAvgPds,Cum(x<>-101)-VAvgPds,pds);

"What is a True/False symbol doing in Cum(Data Array)in above
statement. X=close; (close not equal to minus 101)minus VAvgPds;

Is this correct??? Any enlightenment would be appreciated.Full
formula is below.




{EMA - Volume adjusted}


{ Volume adjusted, dynamic-period EMA v2.2 } { EMA periodicity
shortens on
high volume,
increases on low volume }
