I hit problem when I implement the long ma like :

DEFPARAM preloadbars = 23000// Cumulating positions deactivated

MA20175 = Average[20175](close).

Back test is just nice. What is the problem ?

Maximum preLoad bars that can be set is 10000

Default is 200

Is there a way to compute MA20175 = Average[20175](close) ?

I’m sure that this long term period of a SMA could be calculated another way by using a superior TIMEFRAME, thus reducing a lot its period of calculation!!

Yeah, so Nicolas means, for example …
```
Timeframe(1 hour)
MA20160 = Average[336](close)

Timeframe (1 mn)
If Close crosses over MA20160 Then
.... etc
```
