Post From: Problem (Bug?) with Supertrend Study

We do not have time to look into this particular study right now.

The only recommendation we have is to use a multiplier that has an odd value for the second decimal place. That is, use something like 2.03 or 1.57 rather than 2.0 or 1.5. The reason for this is that the way the math is setup it is checking if the Supertrend value is less (or greater than) the close. If the Supertrend value is equal, then it does not meet the criteria and then uses the previous Supertrend value. From that point forward you get the flat-lining that you are seeing. Using an odd multiplier will help to ensure that the equals situation will not occur.
