I've noticed a difference in the pattern between SF's TSV and TC's TSV, same settings - TSV 28, MA 15.  I understand the actual value isn't important, but I have noticed significant differences in the curve.  One factor I tend to give some consideration is zero crossing.  This to seems to vary between SF and TC.  Any suggestions?

 Any possibility that you had the verticle scales set differently - linear, semi-log, etc?

 cjamesee,
I'm not seeing any differences in the shapes and crossovers when the Moving Average Periods and Types (Simple or Exponential) are used in both TeleChart and StockFinder. Can you provide some example symbols including crossovers on different dates?

 Bruce,

The stock I saw a difference was BHI, Baker Hughes

TSV 28, MA 15, Arithmetic

Dates of Interest:

5/22: TC dips and crosses 0, SF - stays above ~200
6/17: TC crosses down, rebounds but doesn't cross, SF - crosses down and crosses back before diving again.
7/13: TC crosses up and goes up, SF - crosses on 7/16 and then crosses back down.
8/05: TC crosses down and stays down until 8/20, SF - crosses down on 8/10 and back up on 8/12
9/14: TC is climbing to new highs, SF is barely half of Jul-Aug highs

 From your example, it would appear that your TSV in TeleChart is set to Exponential while the TSV in StockFinder is set to Simple.
