Hi Preston,
Thanks for the help but its not the parameters but the results of
the exploration that I'm concern with. WMT on the exploration is
showing the opposite of what the exploartion is suppose to do. The
exploration formula was suppose to look for golden cross( meaning K%
greater than D%) but it gives a wrong result. The result it gives is
the value of D% is greater than the K%. Thats what I'm saying that
the results is not accurate or the desired results are not met.
And I'm seeking assistance to rectify this problem.
Thank you and really hope to resolve this exploration problem.
Thank you again for your kind assistance
