    Chaikin Oscillator is wrong

    NT 7.0.0.9
    The Chaikin Oscillator indicator is calculated incorrectly. It should be calculated with EMA and not SMA. The indicator code reads:

    Line 51 Value.Set(SMA(cummulative, Fast)[
    0] - SMA(cummulative, Slow)[0]);

    That should be changed to:
    Line 51 Value.Set(EMA(cummulative, Fast)[0] - EMA(cummulative, Slow)[0]);

    Please refer to StockCharts.com definition of this indicator
    HTML Code:
    http://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators:chaikin_oscillator
    "The formula is the difference between the 3-day exponential moving average and the 10-day exponential moving average of the Accumulation/Distribution Line."

    Thank you. We will look into it.
