Well, since no one has yet replied, first look at the code suggests your problem is here
Quoting 
average2 = average(PriceSeriesProvide1.Close[0],15)

That means you are importing current bars close, which is not yet closed so it will also repaint. Which is different from the average1 calculation.

Please note here I'm only commenting due to similarity of this part with Pine, I do not code in easy language. You can try changing the 0 to 1 and see if they match but then again it wont have any purpose.

Hope that helped, if not please ignore

could it be that one is the last traded price (2442.50) and the other the settlement price (2438)?

why don't you include:

print(close," ",PriceSeriesProvide1.Close[0]);

in your code to see what each is using?
