How can this be???

My stats (tc2000 ver 17 and ver 18) has
BABA at: 179.29 close / 179.19 open / 180.68 high / 178.15 low / 177.30 10XMA / 181.09 20XMA / 177.37 50XMA

My friend's stats (tc2000 ver 7 and ver 12)has
BABA at: 179.29 close / 179.19 open / 180.68 high / 178.15 low / 177.30 10XMA / 179.30 20XMA / 178.54 50XMA

A website stats (StockTA) has
BABA at: 179.29 close /…/ 177.30 10XMA / 179.82 20XMA / 178.54 50XMA

 

I have checked and my charts are on daily. Friend's charts are also on daily.

Please advise.

I think the data source of your 20 period exponential moving average is set to use the 10 period exponential moving average instead of price.

I think the data source of your 50 period exponential moving average is set to use the 20 period exponential moving average instead of price.

I say this because my results match your values when set this way and match your friend's values when all of the moving averages are set to use price as the data source instead. I did not attempt to replicate the 20 period exponential moving average from StockTA.

You can edit the moving averages and change the data source, but it might be just as easy to remove and re-add the moving averages to the chart. Just make sure you are choosing price and not another moving average as the parent indicator when prompted.

Ah, you are so great, Bruce!  Just for clarity.  My 20XMA was based on the 10XMA (NOT PRICE HISTORY) and my 50XMA was based on 20XMA (NOT PRICE HISTORY). Correcting this has made a world of difference!

Thanks yet again.
