Ralph,
Thanks for the reply.
I am running W95 and NT for the systems, however I dont think this is the problem in my case.
I am able to reproduce both TS4 and DJTS5 results from the same data using Excel (on the same spreadsheet).
What is happening is that in TS4, all the previous values of the stochastic are treated as zero. (ie all values before barnumber 1)
It looks like TS4 is failing to calculate an embedded NumericSeries parameter properly.
Once the number of bars used for the smooth is passed, all is well.
Rgds
Peter

Please see my other posting from today on the Newsgroup Peter - I am
nearly certain this is caused by the same inconsistency. -Ralph Vince

The %K is calculated correctly in each case.
