HI Bruce,

 

I took a 5 min chart (just for a test), where I can see at 12:45, 27.11. (HPE) that Exp Moving Average 9 and Exp Moving Average 20 has the same value, means 14,50

 

So I wrote an PCF with following pattern

 XAVGC9.3 = XAVGC20.3

Afterwards, when i put into "Test symbol" -> "HPE" and press "test formula" the result say 14,50 = 14,50 which is from my understandning definitly right.

But the result downwards also tells me "Value = False" which I don't understand, cause definitely 14,50 = 14,50

when I put instead XAVGC9.3 < XAVGC20.3  than the result says 14,50 <14,50 and "Value = True".

 

does it mean that XAVGC9.3 is not 14,50 but calculated to 14,499 and in TC 2000 I can only see 2 decimals ?

How can I get for calculation exacty 2 decimals, that 14,50 is exactly 14,50 ? Or is there a bug ?

I spend meanwhile half day to understand this - thanks for answer

Yes, what you see is rounded the PCF calc isnt.

Im guessing the best you can do is add a cent or two in your PCFs.

 

A<(B+.01) AND A>(B-.01)

 

 

Thanks
