Here is an updated sample to prevent division by zero.
inputs: k( .6 ), period( 9 ) ;
vars: MD( 0 ) ;
if CurrentBar = 1 then
MD = Close { close in this illustration could be replaced with any
appropriate value }
else begin
if MD[ 1 ] <> 0 and ( K * period * power( ( c / MD[ 1 ] ), 4 ) ) <> 0 then
MD = MD[ 1 ] + ( c - MD[ 1 ] ) / ( K * period * power( ( c / MD[ 1 ] ),
4 ) ) ;
end ;
plot1( MD, "MD" ) ;

TS2000i needs some parenthesis in the denomenator otherwise a straight line
is the result. They are in the book but were left out in the omega posts.
MD = MD[ 1 ] + ( c - MD[ 1 ] ) / (K * period * power( ( c / MD[ 1 ] )),
