renaming a moving average ?

[matt3m]

I have a user variable, MA_Period, and in my code I am constantly accessing EMA(MA_Period)[#]. I would like to shorten this.

But I am tired of writing EMA(MA_Period). Is there a way to do something like

xMA = EMA(MA_Period)

Then I could access xMA[3] to get the value of EMA(MA_Period)[3].

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,
Matt

Hello,

Thanks for the forum post!

You would need to create a data series to set this too.

Please see this guide on how to do this:

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
