Hi, I've noticed the SMA studies in SC vary dramatically from other charting platforms. For instance at market open 05-25-18 the daily chart 200SMA for US stock, $GPS was 30.98 on SC. On TC2000, Esignal, Tradezero and Tradingview the 200SMA on the same daily was 30.00. The figures were just as skewed at the end that day. The 100SMA, same time frame, stock and date it was, SC 31.27. Tradezero, Tradingview and TC2000 all 31.70. They are significant differences to what all other charting platforms I can access were showing. Is it something on my end causing them to show so differently? |
