Nested moving averages?

Thanks for the response. Actually the code is VT Trader...

Metastock code? I am not too familiar with metastock functions, but the code you have produced looks correct to me.

Greetings,

I'm trying to convert the following line of code to NT, it's a bit confusing because it uses "nested" EMA's:

SMI:= 100 * (Mov(Mov(C-(0.5 * (HHV(H,lp) + LLV(L,lp))),sm,E),dsmp,E) / (0.5 * Mov(Mov(HHV(H,lp) - LLV(L,lp),sm,E),dsmp,E)));

Here's what I wrote, it compiles just fine but my question is whether the logic has been properly duplicated?

FirstInside.Set(Close[0] - (0.5 * (MAX(High, Lp)[0] + MIN(Low, Lp)[0])));
Inside1 = EMA(FirstInside, Sm)[0];
FirstInside2.Set(Inside1);
Inside12 = EMA(FirstInside2, Dsmp)[0];
SecondInside.Set(MAX(High, Lp)[0] - MIN(Low, Lp)[0]);
Inside2 = EMA(SecondInside, Sm)[0];
SecondInside2.Set(Inside2);
Inside22 = 0.5 * (EMA(SecondInside2, Dsmp)[0]);

SMI_VALUE = 100 * (Inside12 / Inside22);

Thanks in advance for any confirmation/comments..etc...
