A reference is always a good starting point. It does let people be on common ground. For example

You probably want to read the documentation about line delaying and stage-1, stage-2 operations.

What some people would call a "canonical" implementation can be found here ... (which you probably can better grasp after seeing the Stage-1 explanation about operators)

Indeed. You seem to be extremely new to indicators, timeframes, periods and resampling. ta-lib has a problem with the implementation of indicators with an "unstable" period, because of a cumbersome implementation, which is easily solved (industry de-facto standard) by using a seed value.

An "Exponential Moving Average" is an example, because the definition of that average is that of a first order infinite impulse response filter. All values are always taken into account which leads to a recursive definition for updating values in real-time.

Please read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_average#Exponential_moving_average

You can see that the problem is a ta-lib well-known issue: https://github.com/mrjbq7/ta-lib/issues/114

Back to square one: a good reason not to use ta-lib

Hi @diamonddogs95, I used https://github.com/xFFFFF/Gekko-Datasets to generate a database in SQLite. Then I open it and run this query https://github.com/rodrigo-brito/backtrader-binance-bot/blob/master/dataset/queries.sql
