MA Cross Over Helper Study

[helenquenet]

I'm referring to the one that's included with the basic E-Sig. When I have a 10 min chart up and a 21 min EMA that efs study doesn't always change colour when the price goes above/below the EMA. It does sometimes appear to work as I think it should (ie colour change when close of bar is above/below the EMA) but not others. Can anyone explain what is happening here? Or point me in the direction of a help study that actually does what I have just described?

Cheers

That is happening because the MA Cross Over.efs is calling the ma.efs in Library which is a simple moving average.
Open MA Cross Over.efs with the Editor and replace the line
var vValue = call("/library/ma.efs", nInputLength);
with
var vValue = call("/library/ema.efs", nInputLength);
Save the efs with another name (for example EMA Cross Over).
The difference is that this new efs will now call the ema.efs in the Library folder

Hi Alexis,

Thank you for the help I have done that and it's better I'm still however getting bars closing below/above the ema and it's not changing colour. Is there anything else that could be wrong?

Oh dear

Sorry what a prat! It's OK now I changed the input value! I feel very embarassed but I needed you help on the EMA thing anyway.

Thanks so much.
