Papercuts Time Sampled Higher Timeframe EMA Without Security
Updated
This EMA uses a higher time sampled method instead of using security to gather higher timeframe data.
Its quite fast and worked well with the timeframes prescribed, up to 8hrs, after 8hrs, the formatting gets more complicated and i probably wouldn't use it anyway.
You can use this as a guide to avoid security and even f_security with this method.
NOTE: This includes the non repainting f_security call so that i woudl be able to check my results against what it does, thats not nessecary to keep at all.
There is some minor differences in data, but its so minor it doesnt bother me, though it would be interesting to know what the difference actually is. If anyone figures that out, leave a comment and let me know!
This is meant to be an example for others to build and learn and play with.. so enjoy!
