> How can you input fractional values as MA periods?

Exponential averages don't need integer numbers. The formula is

factor = 2/(1 + period)
average = 
  ((1 - factor)*(last bar's average)) + (factor*(this bar's price))

Some versions use period as the input and some have you input the factor
directly. Either one can be a fraction.
