I said "features are never loose with a database, they are always tight" which was a joke on the mistaking of "loose" for "lose" and you responded as if it was a serious statement. That was your mistake, and this lame attempt to defend yourself is only pointing out the fact that you missed the joke. Now stop it, you're embarrassing yourself.

Maybe this explains it better: I'm trying to detect when MA20 is crossing above MA50 (given that MA10 already is above). I need to know that MA20 was below MA50 yesterday to be sure that it has crossed as I'm not interested in the days when it stays above.
