i am wondering if anybody is willing to program a simple moving average graph i am willing to pay for the service basicly i have a real time data from the broker data supplied gives many values i am only in taking the closing price at a given time frame e.g. 1 min, 5 min, 15 min. etc and plot a simple moving average the moving average will be of say the last 4 closing prices, or 20 etc the program should prompt for: time frame: in min or day no of closing prices to be used for calculating the moving average ut will be nice if the graph cna have color for the different closing price thanks

The formula is very simple, and it does not need to save more than a single data item. If the last data is called x, and the new one z, then you get the forecast for the next one as: next = x * (1 - coef) + z * coef where coef is a coefficient between 0 and 1. A large coefficient places more weight on the new data. This formula usually gives smoother results than moving average. Regards.
