Chris,
That is true except when using parenthesis. Anything inside the parens gets
evaluated to a single number before any other operations. So if Value1 and
value2 are 1 and 2 respectively, and maxbarsback is 5 then (value1 +
value2)/2*maxbarsback is (3)/2*5 = 1.5*5 = 7.5. Your second expression is
(1+2)/(2*5) = 3 / 10 = 0.3.
Regards,
Ed Winters
