MA Period (1=No MA)
Default value is 1 with a valid range from 1 to 199.
This parameter is used to adjust the data source for the cycle analysis process and is used in conjunction with the MA Avg Type and Price Source parameters. When this parameter is set to 1, the raw price data (e.g., each individual bar) is used in the cycle analysis process. When this parameter is set to a value higher than 1, a moving average is created and used in the cycle analysis process. This gives you the flexibility of performing a cycle analysis on either the raw price data or any conceivable moving average of the data. Generally speaking, applying a moving average will filter out some of the noise but will introduce lag.
