Hello,

I am trying to build the TEMA indicator for Multicharts.
1) created a function called TEMA
 
Code
inputs:
	Length(numericsimple),
	Price(numericseries);

variables: 
	XMA(0),
	XMA2(0),
	XMA3(0);

XMA = XAverage( Price, Length ) ;
XMA2 = XAverage( XMA, Length ) ;
XMA3 = XAverage( XMA2, Length ) ;
 
TEMA = 3 * XMA - 3 * XMA2 + XMA3 ;
2) created an indicator called TEMA

 
Code
inputs:
	Price( Close ),
	Length( 14 );

variables:  var0( 0 ) ;

var0 = TEMA( Price, Length ) ;
 
Plot1( var0, "TEMA" ) ;
Now I attach the indicator onto a chart but only horizontal line appears instead of a moving average type line. What do I do wrong?
This suppose to be an "easy language"

Thanks for help

tomas262,

the first input in your function is the length, but when you call the function in the indicator you are using Price as the first parameter. Change the order in either the function or the indicator should give you the desired result.
