Hi all,
I have recently been tinkering around with the Variable Time Series Forecast available in the latest Forum.DLL v2.0.
ExtFml( "Forum.TSF", Data Array, Periods)
Definitely a lot faster than its SMA counterpart. However I was wondering if anyone actually knows how this is calculated? My understanding is there are quite a few different interpretations out there, and I never like adding any blackbox formula to my trading systems.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi gt
Time Series Forecast is the sum of Linear Regression and Linear Regression Slope. The standard Mov() function in MetaStock generates this with Mov( Data Array, Periods, T ) .
There's also a long-winded method of generating TSF using multiple SMA (S) functions. I don't have a sample available to me at the moment. However, Mov( Data Array, Periods, T ) is really all you need.
