Hi Ash,

Works fine for me. Has for years (since '99).

is there any reason that AB will not plot a moving average longer than 200?  
Yes -- not enough data.

Do you have 500+ days (or whatever periods you are using) available?  Do you 
understand how a moving average is computed?  After buying a program like AB, 
is there any reason that one would not understand how to use it?  AB is great, 
but it cant invent historical data to write a MA longer than the available data.

Hint:   Make certain that you have at least 1000 periods in your database.  If 
you are using the canned formula (and set number of bars to load to 1000) if 
you want to see it from at least the last 500 bars, or use SetBarsRequired at 
the top of your personal formula. Why more than 500? -- learn the formula and 
you'll understand.

  After all these years of development is there any reason that AB will
  not plot a moving average longer than 200?
  Thanks
