It would be better understood if you can show what you mean when you say the values don't seem to be accurate.

Why do you want to code EMA if you can import EMA values using the iMA() function?

You can explain in more detail what system you want to use, such as the EMA indicator that you are referring to, whether you want to encode EMA in EA form or as an additional market analysis.

Thank u for replying :). I'm trying to create an alert system but the issue is the EMA calculations are not accurate. The current candle EMA is calculated by this formula  [Close - previous EMA] * (2 / n+1) + previous EMA am i right?The problem is how do i get the previous candle EMA? How do i get the most precise previous day EMA value that would be used in the equation to get the most precise today's EMA?

learning the manual technique first is getting better before running in the form of EA, for example EA that uses the basis of MA, it must first learn how the MA line produces the entry / exit signal, then when you understand how the MA line works can run EA based on MA in work

It should be the right way to learn trading if you want to use EA help because EA itself is a form of trading that we run everyday that is applied to an EA
