Post From: SMA/EMA calculation explanation for different timeframe bars.

Thanks John. I'm using the EMA study on 1 min chart, and overlaying it on the 1s second chart. Now for the 1s chart when I go to a timestamp earlier in the day, that second has the 'rounded off' value for that minute not the value that was there in real-time when that minute's bar was open. I can confirm that when I replay.

Example using above timestamps: 08:35:35 in real-time or during replay has 6 EMA as 5130 (for example). But at the end of the day when I go that timestamp it is rounded off to what the 08:35-36th minute ended up with which would be 5130.5 or something.

Q: Is there a way to capture the real-time values either on the chart or using some other technique/study? Thank you.
