If | If there is a discrepancy in the chart and scanner indicator’s calculations, it may be related to one of the following: | ||

Also verify that you | Also verify that you did not use an additional data series in the indicator’s calculation on the chart, because in the Scanner you can only use Data1 for calculations. If you still observe the differences in the indicator values, cross-check the logic of the indicator. | ||
