Post From: Smoothed MA in ACSIL differs significantly from study

Hi,

I am computing the smoothed MA in my ACSIL study using any of the three following options:

  sc.SmoothedMovingAverage(sc.Close, subgraph_Smooth, 50);
  sc.MovingAverage(sc.Close, subgraph_Smooth, MOVAVGTYPE_SMOOTHED, 50);
  SmoothedMovingAverage_S(sc.Close, subgraph_Smooth, i, 50, 0);

All of the above produce the same results (they look close but not exactly like simple-moving-avg 50 period), but they differ significantly from the study in SierraChartStudies_64 "Moving Average - Smoothed."

I can easily see the difference by drawing both studies into the main region.

Can you tell me why the outputs are different?

Thanks.
