[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: Pivotal EMA (PEMA)

Jose,

Thanks for sharing this...a very interesting concept.

The Forum Dll that you used is a newer version than the one we have 
in our files section. In order to use the one in our files section 
the term "DLL" must be added to the variable ExtFml name...

example: pkEma:=ExtFml("Forum.VarMOV",pkVal,pds,e);

change to: pkEma:=ExtFml("ForumDLL.VarMOV",pkVal,pds,e);

or just go to the Equis Forum site and obtain the newer version.:-)

Preston
