Code simple simple for understand the language of esignal :

Example :
I want to make one average of Close and one average of the average of close:

Tradestation is:

Var:sma1(0)sma2(0),mm3(0),s_sma(0),s_sma2(0),s_sma 3(0);

sma1= average(Close,14);
sma2= average(Close,20);

s_sma = (sma1 + sma2); //add

s_sma2 = average(s_sma,2); //average of add
s_sma3 = average(s_sma2,2);
// duble average(of average of add)

plot(s_sma3);

___________________________

In tradestation work perfectly but not in esignal :
code esignal:

function preMain() {
setPriceStudy(false);
setStudyTitle("MA of PVI");
setCursorLabelName("PVI",0);
setCursorLabelName("MAofPVI",1);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue, 0);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.red, 1);
}

function main(Length,Lengthn){

var sma1 = sma(14);
var sma2 = sma(20);

var s_sma = (sma1 + sma2);

var s_sma2 = sma(2,s_sma);
var s_sma3 = sma(2,s_sma2);

return (s_sma3);

}

Error:

The reason your script is not working is because in eSignal when you perform a math operation on a series (such as adding two series as you are doing with sma1+sma2) the result is a value and not a series which the sma() function instead requires.
In order to do what you want you will need to first calculate the sum of sma1 and sma2 in a separate function (or efs) and then call that function (or efs) using either the efsInternal() or efsExternal() functions. This will create the series which you can then use as a source for the sma() function used to calculate s_sma2 and subsequently s_sma3
For a more complete explanation and solution see this post in reply to a similar question. In that reply you will also find links to other examples on creating studies on studies using efs2 functions

micman2,

The problem is that s_sma and s_sma2 are single values instead of a series.

You can use the efsInternal function to convert them into a series.
