Enrico, Thanks for the response. i knew the data came from yahoo, but i didnt realise the charts were generated by yahoo directly.
It's an odd way to show the macd data, and ive never seen it before. its not very easy to read it. I will see if i can generate the MACD in the conventional manner directly at the yahoo site, and let you know if so. i couldnt do it when i tried a few moments ago, but i dont have much time now, and will try again later. again, thanks for your response, regards, ex-oficio. > Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2010 17:36:29 +0000 > From: enrico-min...@gmx.de > To: luke.i.wilkin...@live.co.uk > Subject: [Bug 504042] Re: invest applet MACD is incorrectly displayed > > Please give feedback at the gnome bugzilla.
