[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: Value in explorer is not equal with those in chart

Jeff,

As I have pointed out to jao, the exploration problems usually 
relate to calculations of the exponential or Wilders based 
indicators and having an adequate amount of time for the 
calculations to take place. 

I can duplicate jao's problems but only if I use an exploration data 
period that is too short.

In your case I don't know what indicators you are using but I would 
bet there are some exponential based indicators in there. If you 
want us to take a look we would be happy to.

Double checking your exploration against the chart value is 
certainly a good idea and should be part of a standard operating 
procedure. It just makes good sense.
