The mystery is solved. If I seed Vidya at the same time you did, on 2/19, I get the same values. This is also after I fixed the error in column F in the Excel spreadsheet. I sent you a corrected version. Sorry for all the confusion.

Make sure you use the new spreadsheet I sent you, or correct the old one. The error wouldn't have shown up in your AMES chart, I don't think, because the formula didn't lose a day until way down the column, and you were only putting in a few months of data for AMES.

As for the 12 days in the SUM, TASC used 9 in the October 1995 article, but Richard has already pointed out that a 9-day CMO isn't as good as a 14-day one. So 12 would seem to be an improvement over 9. You can change this by going into columns H and I and making the sum for 12 days instead of 9. Start with row 10 in both columns, then copy all the way down each column. 14 would probably be even better. And the next thing you could change would be the 12 in
K4. Richard has said that you can't gain much from a 12-day Vidya MA. Hasn't he suggested 89?

You could create various templates, of course.
