Forgive if already answered, I reviewed all posts in this thread but may have indeed misssed the response.
I'm looking for the Foumula for the ERG study. The software I use does not have this indicator(study), but does allow for the creation of custom studies. I've hunted around, but have not yet found anything concrete about the formula is created, or how this study(indicator) is created. Much appreciated if someone knows, or can point me to it.
Respectfully,

Same here. I have looked all over the inet and the script are sometimes quite different. I was able to cobble together an Erg in EL that finally matches the charts posted here, but no luck in getting the histogram to match. I assumed the histogram showed the difference or spread between the erg line the average, but that doesn't match when coded that way. I can only guess the line and histogram are actually two separate indicators with different parameters. Any insight would indeed be helpful.

Ergodic Formula
by Howard Arrington
The Ergodic formula is a ratio of two double averages. The numerator is an average of an average of the Net. The denominator is an average of an average of the Absolute value of the Net. The Net is the difference between a bar's close and the prior bar's close.
Ergodic = (Average (Average (Net, parameter 1), parameter 2) / (Average (Average (Abs(Net), parameter 1), parameter 2)

343 & 2401 are the number of contracts traded per bar.
They are multiples of 7 which is prime.
Before I answer your "bar superiority" question let me set up the answer by asking, "do you understand why some people like 10 minute charts and others like 30 minute charts?
