Paul,
The original discussion was about lag in moving averages and occurred
in 2001.
Go here
http://www.purebytes.com/cgi-local/swish/swish-cgi.pl
and look under metastock and 2001 for all the discussions.
I'm not aware of the zerolag being part of the canned metastock
package.
It's easy enough though to write it but you might want to consider
using the smoothed version of a Jurik type MA that we came up with
earlier this year.
The mechanics of the exploration will be the same no matter whether
you use an EMA, a Zerolag EMA, or a Jurik type EMA. Its just a matter
of deciding which you want to use.
If you want to do a zerolag let me know and we'll proceed.
