Hi, I just noticed an issue. Please look at the most left and most right chart at the top in my screenshot. These are both 1 hour charts. The left has 20 days to load and the right one 40 days to load.
The pink EMA200 looks different from each other, but there is enough days

left: 20 days means 480 bars - EMA 200 should be fine
right 40 days 960 bars

Why do they look different?

Many thanks for your help.

Is the EMA200 based on the same Input for both charts?

Hi,

yes it is. Then I adjusted the left chart also tto 40 days and only then EMA looked the same.

Thanks
