I spend a lot of time debugging this and found the LWMA is actually WMA.
Bug confirmed in Multicharts engine

isn't this only a problem in naming?


LWMA in SQ is available also as WAverage in EasyLanguage.

I thought that LWMA and WMA are different moving averages.

Please double check this.

I think LWMA and WMA are different moving averages.

Hi CooleRnax,

I was reading about WMA and LWMA algorithms and it seems like it is exactly the same.


Furthermore, I exported LWMA values from MultiCharts and made a test in IndicatorTester and the values were matching - see the attached screenshot.


The problem must be somewhere else. You can try yourself using SQ_IndyExport study.


If you have some problematic strategy, you can attach it here and we will investigate it further.


Best regards,

Tomas
