Hi
I'm trying to set up a 100 Daily Moving Average on a volume chart using the Moving Average - Time Period study.
Sadly it doesn't work as the result is incorrect.

Even if I use this study on a daily historical chart, it does not line up with the basic Moving Average - Simple study.

Is there any explanation for this? Is it not using "simple" moving average?

Thanks
Matt

Refer to the documentation here, it explains how this study works:

We cannot provide further information. Although we did do some additional updates to that page just now.
