I am using a custom PCF stochastic that uses STOC12.3, STOC12.3.1, and STOC12.3.2.  I am also using the Stochastics indicator with a period of 3 and a 12 %K with a 3 %D.  When I check the value of the STOC12.3, STOC12.3.1, and STOC12.3.2 with the value of the 3 period, 12 %k on the chart, they are different values.  I have tried different values with different %K's and different periods and they are always different between the indicator and what I get from the PCF.  Why are they different?  I am assuming that this is user error but I can't figure out why they are differnt values.

STOC12.3 is a Period of 12 and %K of 3.  That is for the Stochastic line. The %D line is an average of that line: AVG(STOC12.3, 3)
