I was wondering if anyone has done this with EL:



The simple idea is to try and predict or forecast where the moving average will be in the future. I am not sure if you need to use a Range chart for this to work, or if any chart type will work.

Ideally, the indicator would:

- Work for Simple and Exponential averages
- Allow you to forward project 'x' bars (not just limited to 1, but user definable)
- Keep the forward projected plot so it could be compared to the actual plot for accuracy

Any math guys willing to do this for EL?

Mike

Since you mentioned predicting a moving average, I have something like that in nt. It just draws a bar projection based on a number of bar setting. So its like an ma of sorts.
