thank you so much for all your help! i really apreciate it. just to
clarify, though, is it not possible to create an nth bar sma without
the stair-step look and without smoothing (as in actually
calculating the nth bar sma for each and every point)?
on a separate but somewhat related note: is there a formula that for
point X on a graph (say, the latest data point), it would take day
x-5 (5 days ago), x-10, x-15, x-20, and x-25 and plot the highest
value? or lowest value?
This forum is a gem; I've learned a lot browsing. Thank you for all
your time,
Adam
