Fibonacci Moving Averages [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Fibonacci Moving Averages are a toolkit which allows the user to configure different types of Moving Averages based on key Fibonacci numbers.
Moving Averages are used to visualise short-term and long-term support and resistance which can be used as a signal where price might continue or retrace. Moving Averages serve as a simple yet powerful tool that can help traders in their decision-making and help foster a sense of where the price might be moving next.
The aim of this script is to simplify the trading experience of users by automatically displaying a series of useful Moving Averages, allowing the user to easily configure multiple at once depending on their trading style.
█ USAGE
This script will automatically plot 5 Moving Averages, each with a period of a key Fibonacci Level (5, 8, 13, 21 and 34).
Both the Source and Type of the Moving Averages can be configured by the user (see all options below under SETTINGS), making this a versatile trading tool that can provide value in a wide variety of trading styles.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• MA Source: Determines the source of the Moving Averages (open, high, low, close, hl2, hlc3, ohlc4, hlcc4)
• MA Source: Determines the type of the Moving Averages (SMA, EMA, VWMA, WMA, HMA, RMA)
Colors
• 5: Determines the color of the 5 period Moving Average
• 8: Determines the color of the 8 period Moving Average
• 13: Determines the color of the 13 period Moving Average
• 21: Determines the color of the 21 period Moving Average
• 34: Determines the color of the 34 period Moving Average
Moving Averages HistogramAn interesting idea is to simplify the display of whether ONE fast-moving average crosses FIVE other slower-moving averages using just a histogram.
The idea is to increase the step counter by 1 every time a fast-moving average crosses OVER one of the five slower-moving averages until reaching 5 (highest value) and decrease the step counter by 1 every time the fast-moving average crosses UNDER each one of the five slower moving averages until reaching 0 (lowest value of the histogram).
=== Cut To Chase ===
If the histogram is at the top value 5 (green), it means the FAST moving average is ABOVE ALL slower-moving averages, Hench, the asset is up trending.
If the histogram is at the bottom value 0 (red), it means the FAST moving average is BELOW ALL slower-moving averages, Hench, the asset is down trending.
If the histogram is in the midways between 0 to 5, it means the FAST moving average is starting to cross the slower moving averages which could lead to a trend reversal, up or down, it depends on the direction of the crossing.
=== Notes ===
You can change from a variety of moving averages like RMA, EMA, ALMA, HMA, and so on.
You can reduce the number of slow-moving averages by placing the same length.
You can visualize the moving averages in case you want to see how it works behind, by going to settings and clicking 'Show MA lines'.
Every moving average length can be modified inside settings.
Note that the fast-moving average should have the lowest length.
You can visualize how the moving average is plotted:
Moving Averages Linear CombinatorLinearly combining moving averages can provide relatively interesting results such as a low-lagging moving averages or moving averages able to produce more pertinent crosses with the price.
As a remainder, a linear combination is a mathematical expression that is based on the multiplication of two variables (or terms) with two coefficients (also called scalars when working with vectors) and adding the results, that is:
ax + by
This expression is a linear combination , with x/y as variables and a/b as coefficients. Lot of indicators are made from linear combinations of moving averages, some examples include the double/triple exponential moving average, least squares moving average and the hull moving average.
Today proposed indicator allow the user to combine many types of moving averages together in order to get different results, we will introduce each settings of the indicator as well as how they affect the final output.
Explaining The Effects Of Linear Combinations
There are various ways to explain why linear combination can produce low-lagging moving averages, lets take for example the linear combination of a fast SMA of period p/2 and slow simple moving average of period p , the linear combination of these two moving averages is described as follows:
MA = 2SMA(p/2) + -1SMA(p)
Which is equivalent to:
MA = 2SMA(p/2) - SMA(p) = SMA(p/2) + SMA(p/2) - SMA(p)
We can see the above linear combinations consist in adding a bandpass filter to the fast moving average, which of course allow to reduce the lag. It is important to note that lag is reduced when the first moving average term is more reactive than the second moving average term. In case we instead use:
MA = -2SMA(p/2) + 1SMA(p)
we would have a combination between a low-pass and band-reject filter.
The Indicator
The indicator is based on the following linear combination:
Coeff × LeadingMA(length) - (Coeff-1) × LaggingMA(length)
The length setting control both moving averages period, leading control the type of moving average used as leading MA, while lagging control the type of MA used as lagging moving average, in order to get low lag results the leading MA should be more reactive than the lagging MA. Coeff control the coefficients of the linear combination, with higher values of coeff amplifying the effects of the linear combination, negative values of coeff would make a low-lag moving average become a lagging moving average, coeff = 1 return the leading MA, coeff = -1 return the lagging MA. The leading period divisor allow to divide the period of the leading MA by the selected number.
The types of moving average available are: simple, exponentially weighted, triangular, least squares, hull and volume weighted. The lagging MA allow you to select another MA on the chart as input.
length = 100, leading period divisor = 2, coeff = 2, with both MA type = SMA. Using coeff = -2 instead would give:
You can select "Plot leading and lagging" in order to show the leading and lagging MA.
Conclusion
The proposed tool allow the user to create a custom moving averages by making use of linear combination. The script is not that useful when you think about it, and might maybe be one of my worst, as it is relatively impractical, not proud of it, but it still took time to make so i decided to post it anyway.

🛠 Filters to filter out false signals
1️⃣ Minimum distance between the signals
- What it does: sets the minimum number of candles between signals of the same type
- Why it is needed: it prevents the appearance of too frequent signals, especially during periods of high volatility
- How to set it up: Set a different value for each signal type (default: 3-5 bars)
- Example: if the value is 3 for Up/Down signals, after the buy signal appears, the next buy signal may appear no earlier than 3 bars later
2️⃣ Advanced indicator filters
🔍 RSI Filter
- What it does: Checks the Relative Strength Index (RSI) value before generating a signal
- Why it is needed: it helps to avoid countertrend entries and catch reversal points
- How to set up:
- For buy signals (🔋 Buy): set the RSI range, usually in the oversold zone (for example, 1-30)
- For sell signals (🪫 Sell): set the RSI range, usually in the overbought zone (for example, 70-100)
- Example: if the RSI = 25 (in the range 1-30), the buy signal will be confirmed
📊 MFI Filter (Cash Flow Index)
- What it does: analyzes volumes and the direction of price movement
- Why it is needed: confirms signals with data on the activity of cash flows
- How to set up:
- For buy signals (🔋 Buy): set the MFI range in the oversold zone (for example, 1-25)
- For sell signals (🪫 Sell): set the MFI range in the overbought zone (for example, 75-100)
- Example: if MFI = 80 (in the range of 75-100), the sell signal will be confirmed
📈 Stochastic Filter
- What it does: analyzes the position of the current price relative to the price range
- Why it is needed: confirms signals based on overbought/oversold conditions
- How to configure:
- You can configure the K Length, D Length and Smoothing parameters
- For buy signals (🔋 Buy): set the stochastic range in the oversold zone (for example, 1-20)
- For sell signals (🪫 Sell): set the stochastic range in the overbought zone (for example, 80-100)
- Example: if stochastic = 15 (is in the range of 1-20), the buy signal will be confirmed

Variety N-Tuple Moving Averages w/ Variety Stepping [Loxx]Variety N-Tuple Moving Averages w/ Variety Stepping is a moving average indicator that allows you to create 1- 30 tuple moving average types; i.e., Double-MA, Triple-MA, Quadruple-MA, Quintuple-MA, ... N-tuple-MA. This version contains 2 different moving average types. For example, using "50" as the depth will give you Quinquagintuple Moving Average. If you'd like to find the name of the moving average type you create with the depth input with this indicator, you can find a list of tuples here: Tuples extrapolated
Due to the coding required to adapt a moving average to fit into this indicator, additional moving average types will be added as they are created to fit into this unique use case. Since this is a work in process, there will be many future updates of this indicator. For now, you can choose from either EMA or RMA.
This indicator is also considered one of the top 10 forex indicators. See details here: forex-station.com
Additionally, this indicator is a computationally faster, more streamlined version of the following indicators with the addition of 6 stepping functions and 6 different bands/channels types.
STD-Stepped, Variety N-Tuple Moving Averages
STD-Stepped, Variety N-Tuple Moving Averages is the standard deviation stepped/filtered indicator of the following indicator
Last but not least, a big shoutout to @lejmer for his help in formulating a looping solution for this streamlined version. this indicator is speedy even at 50 orders deep. You can find his scripts here: www.tradingview.com
How this works
Step 1: Run factorial calculation on the depth value,
Step 2: Calculate weights of nested moving averages
factorial(depth) / (factorial(depth - k) * factorial(k); where depth is the depth and k is the weight position
Examples of coefficient outputs:
6 Depth: 6 15 20 15 6
7 Depth: 7 21 35 35 21 7
8 Depth: 8 28 56 70 56 28 8
9 Depth: 9 36 34 84 126 126 84 36 9
10 Depth: 10 45 120 210 252 210 120 45 10
11 Depth: 11 55 165 330 462 462 330 165 55 11
12 Depth: 12 66 220 495 792 924 792 495 220 66 12
13 Depth: 13 78 286 715 1287 1716 1716 1287 715 286 78 13
Step 3: Apply coefficient to each moving average
For QEMA, which is 5 depth EMA , the calculation is as follows
ema1 = ta. ema ( src , length)
ema2 = ta. ema (ema1, length)
ema3 = ta. ema (ema2, length)
ema4 = ta. ema (ema3, length)
ema5 = ta. ema (ema4, length)
In this new streamlined version, these MA calculations are packed into an array inside loop so Pine doesn't have to keep all possible series information in memory. This is handled with the following code:
temp = array.get(workarr, k + 1) + alpha * (array.get(workarr, k) - array.get(workarr, k + 1))
array.set(workarr, k + 1, temp)
After we pack the array, we apply the coefficients to derive the NTMA:
qema = 5 * ema1 - 10 * ema2 + 10 * ema3 - 5 * ema4 + ema5
Stepping calculations
First off, you can filter by both price and/or MA output. Both price and MA output can be filtered/stepped in their own way. You'll see two selectors in the input settings. Default is ATR ATR. Here's how stepping works in simple terms: if the price/MA output doesn't move by X deviations, then revert to the price/MA output one bar back.
ATR
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems, that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
Standard Deviation
Standard deviation is a statistic that measures the dispersion of a dataset relative to its mean and is calculated as the square root of the variance. The standard deviation is calculated as the square root of variance by determining each data point's deviation relative to the mean. If the data points are further from the mean, there is a higher deviation within the data set; thus, the more spread out the data, the higher the standard deviation.
Adaptive Deviation
By definition, the Standard Deviation (STD, also represented by the Greek letter sigma σ or the Latin letter s) is a measure that is used to quantify the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of data values. In technical analysis we usually use it to measure the level of current volatility .
Standard Deviation is based on Simple Moving Average calculation for mean value. This version of standard deviation uses the properties of EMA to calculate what can be called a new type of deviation, and since it is based on EMA , we can call it EMA deviation. And added to that, Perry Kaufman's efficiency ratio is used to make it adaptive (since all EMA type calculations are nearly perfect for adapting).
The difference when compared to standard is significant--not just because of EMA usage, but the efficiency ratio makes it a "bit more logical" in very volatile market conditions.
See how this compares to Standard Devaition here:
Adaptive Deviation
Median Absolute Deviation
The median absolute deviation is a measure of statistical dispersion. Moreover, the MAD is a robust statistic, being more resilient to outliers in a data set than the standard deviation. In the standard deviation, the distances from the mean are squared, so large deviations are weighted more heavily, and thus outliers can heavily influence it. In the MAD, the deviations of a small number of outliers are irrelevant.
Because the MAD is a more robust estimator of scale than the sample variance or standard deviation, it works better with distributions without a mean or variance, such as the Cauchy distribution.
For this indicator, I used a manual recreation of the quantile function in Pine Script. This is so users have a full inside view into how this is calculated.
Efficiency-Ratio Adaptive ATR
Average True Range (ATR) is widely used indicator in many occasions for technical analysis . It is calculated as the RMA of true range. This version adds a "twist": it uses Perry Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio to calculate adaptive true range
See how this compares to ATR here:
ER-Adaptive ATR
Mean Absolute Deviation
The mean absolute deviation (MAD) is a measure of variability that indicates the average distance between observations and their mean. MAD uses the original units of the data, which simplifies interpretation. Larger values signify that the data points spread out further from the average. Conversely, lower values correspond to data points bunching closer to it. The mean absolute deviation is also known as the mean deviation and average absolute deviation.
This definition of the mean absolute deviation sounds similar to the standard deviation (SD). While both measure variability, they have different calculations. In recent years, some proponents of MAD have suggested that it replace the SD as the primary measure because it is a simpler concept that better fits real life.
For Pine Coders, this is equivalent of using ta.dev()
Bands/Channels
See the information above for how bands/channels are calculated. After the one of the above deviations is calculated, the channels are calculated as output +/- deviation * multiplier
Signals
Green is uptrend, red is downtrend, yellow "L" signal is Long, fuchsia "S" signal is short.

Moving Averages RefurbishedIntroduction
This is a collection of multiple moving averages, where you can have a rainbow of moving averages with different types that can be defined by the user.
There are already other indicators in this rainbow style, however certain averages are absent in certain indicators and present in others,
needing the merge to have a more complete solution.
Resources
Here there is the possibility to individually define each moving average.
In addition, it is possible to adjust some details, such as themes, coloring and periods.
Regarding the calculation of averages, credit goes to the following authors.
What I've done here is to group these averages together and allow them to combine.

SMA Simple, EMA Exponential Moving Averages with high lowThis is a rewrite of my previous moving average script.
In this version, I have added the 3 day high and low as these are often used as short term trend following entry points
Traders often try to buy the 3 day average of lows in an uptrend and sell the 3 day average of highs in a downtrend
In the same fashion, I have added the 3 week high and low averages for longer term trend following for swing trading
I have added the 18 day, week, month simple moving averages ( SMA ) as I follow these from Ira Epsteins free you tube trading videos).
His 50 years of experience has taught him these are best
I have also added some longer term SMA , 100 day, 200 day, 100w, and 200w
Exponential EMA averages for longer term charts are included 100d, 200d, 100w, 100m, 200m
You can configure the script in the options to remove the ones you don't want to follow
I have removed the micro averages from my previous script since they are for short term scalping day trading hyper-trading which I don't do
Exponential averages are shown as crosses
some of the longer term averages are circles just to set them apart
Parametric Corrective Linear Moving AveragesImpulse responses can fully describe their associated systems, for example a linearly weighted moving average (WMA) has a linearly decaying impulse response, therefore we can deduce that lag is reduced since recent values are the ones with the most weights, the Blackman moving average (or Blackman filter) has a bell shaped impulse response, that is mid term values are the ones with the most weights, we can deduce that such moving average is pretty smooth, the least squares moving average has negative weights, we can therefore deduce that it aim to heavily reduce lag, and so on. We could even estimate the lag of a moving average by looking at its impulse response (calculating the lag of a moving average is the aim of my next article with Pinescripters) .
Today a new moving average is presented, such moving average use a parametric rectified linear unit function as weighting function, we will see that such moving average can be used as a low lag moving average as well as a signal moving average, thus creating a moving average crossover system. Finally we will estimate the LSMA using the proposed moving average.
Correctivity And The Parametric Rectified Linear Unit Function
Lot of terms are used, each representing one thing, lets start with the easiest one,"corrective". In some of my posts i may have used the term "underweighting", which refer to the process of attributing negative weights to the input of a moving average, a corrective moving average is simply a moving average underweighting oldest values of the input, simply put most of the low lag moving averages you'll find are corrective. This term was used by Aistis Raudys in its paper "Optimal Negative Weight Moving Average for Stock Price Series Smoothing" and i felt like it was a more elegant term to use instead of "low-lag".
Now we will describe the parametric rectified linear unit function (PReLU), this function is the one used as weighting function and is not that complex. This function has two inputs, alpha , and x , in short if x is greater than 0, x remain unchanged, however if x is lower than 0, then the function output is alpha × x , if alpha is equal to 1 then the function is equivalent to an identity function, if alpha is equal to 0 then the function is equivalent to a rectified unit function.
PReLU is mostly used in neural network design as an activation function, i wont explain to you how neural networks works but remember that neural networks aim to mimic the neural networks in the brain, and the activation function mimic the process of neuron firing. Its a super interesting topic because activation functions regroup many functions that can be used for technical indicators, one example being the inverse fisher RSI who make use of the hyperbolic tangent function.
Finally the term parametric used here refer to the ability of the user to change the aspect of the weighting function thanks to certain settings, thinking about it, it isn't a common things for moving averages indicators to let the user modify the characteristics of the weighting function, an exception being the Arnaud Legoux moving average (ALMA) which weighting function is a gaussian function, the user can control the peak and width of the function.
The Indicator
The indicator has two moving averages displayed on the chart, a trigger moving average (in blue) and a signal moving average (in red), their crosses can generate signals. The length parameter control the filter length, with higher values of length filtering longer term price fluctuations.
The percentage of negative weights parameter aim to determine the percentage of negative weights in the weighting function, note that the signal moving average won't use the same amount and will use instead : 100 - Percentage , this allow to reverse the weighting function thus creating a more lagging output for signal. Note that this parameter is caped at 50, this is because values higher than 50 would make the trigger moving average become the signal moving average, in short it inverse the role of the moving averages, that is a percentage of 25 would be the same than 75.
In red the moving average using 25% of negative weights, in blue the same moving average using 14% percent of negative weights. In theory, more negative weights = less lag = more overshoots.
Here the trigger MA in blue has 0% of negative weights, the trigger MA in green has however 35% of negative weights, the difference in lag can be clearly seen. In the case where there is 0% of negative weights the trigger become a simple WMA while the signal one become a moving average with linearly increasing weights.
The corrective factor is the same as alpha in PReLU, and determine the steepness of the negative weights line, this parameter is constrained in a range of (0,1), lower values will create a less steep negative weights line, this parameter is extremely useful when we want to reduce overshoots, an example :
here the corrective factor is equal to 1 (so the weighting function is an identity function) and we use 45% of negative weights, this create lot of overshoots, however a corrective factor of 0.5 reduce them drastically :
Center Of Linearity
The impulse response of the signal moving average is inverse to the impulse response of the trigger moving average, if we where to show them together we would see that they would crosses at a point, denoted center of linearity, therefore the crosses of each moving averages correspond to the cross of the center of linearity oscillator and 0 of same period.
This is also true with the center of gravity oscillator, linear covariance oscillator and linear correlation oscillator. Of course the center of linearity oscillator is way more efficient than the proposed indicator, and if a moving average crossover system is required, then the wma/sma pair is equivalent and way more efficient, who would know that i would propose something with more efficient alternatives ? xD
Estimating A Least Squares Moving Average
I guess...yeah...but its not my fault you know !!! Its a linear weighting function ! What can i do about it ?
The least squares moving average is corrective, its weighting function is linearly decreasing and posses negative weights with an amount of negative weights inferior to 50%, now we only need to find the exact percentage amount of negative weights. How to do it ? Well its not complicated if we recall the estimation with the WMA/SMA combination.
So, an LSMA of period p is equal to : 3WMA(p) - 2SMA(p) , each coefficient of the combination can give us this percentage, that is 2/3*100 = 33.333 , so there are 33.33% percent of negative weights in the weighting function of the least squares moving average.
In blue the trigger moving average with percentage of negative values et to 33.33, and in green the lsma of both period 50.
Conclusion
Altho inefficient, the proposed moving averages remain extremely interesting. They make use of the PReLU function as weighting function and allow the user to have a more accurate control over the characteristics of the moving averages output such as lag and overshoot amount, such parameters could even be made adaptive.
We have also seen how to estimate the least squares moving average, we have seen that the lsma posses 33.333...% of negative weights in its weighting function, another useful information.
The lsma is always behind me, not letting me focus on cryptobot super profit indicators using massive amount of labels, its like each time i make an indicator, the lsma come back, like a jealous creature, she want the center of attention, but you know well that the proposed indicator is inefficient ! Inefficient elegance (effect of the meds) .
Thanks for reading !
Momentum Moving Averages | MisinkoMasterThe Momentum Moving Averages (MMA) indicator blends multiple moving averages into a single momentum-scoring framework, helping traders identify whether market conditions are favoring upside momentum or downside momentum.
By comparing faster, more adaptive moving averages (DEMA, TEMA, ALMA, HMA) against a baseline EMA, the MMA produces a cumulative score that reflects the prevailing strength and direction of the trend.
🔎 Methodology
Moving Averages Used
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) → Baseline reference.
DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) → Reacts faster than EMA.
TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) → Even faster, reduces lag further.
ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average) → Smooth but adaptive, with adjustable σ and offset.
HMA (Hull Moving Average) → Very responsive, reduces lag, ideal for momentum shifts.
Scoring System
Each comparison is made against the EMA baseline:
If another MA is above EMA → +1 point.
If another MA is below EMA → -1 point.
The total score reflects overall momentum:
Positive score → Bullish bias.
Negative score → Bearish bias.
Trend Logic
Bullish Signal → When the score crosses above 0.1.
Bearish Signal → When the score crosses below -0.1.
Neutral or sideways trends are identified when the score remains between thresholds.
📈 Visualization
All five moving averages are plotted on the chart.
Colors adapt to the current score:
Cyan (Bullish bias) → Positive momentum.
Magenta (Bearish bias) → Negative momentum.
Overlapping fills between MAs highlight zones of convergence/divergence, making momentum shifts visually clear.
⚡ Features
Adjustable length parameter for all MAs.
Adjustable ALMA parameters (sigma and offset).
Cumulative momentum score system to filter false signals.
Works across all markets (crypto, forex, stocks, indices).
Overlay design for direct chart integration.
✅ Use Cases
Trend Confirmation → Ensure alignment with market momentum.
Momentum Shifts → Spot when faster MAs consistently outperform the baseline EMA.
Entry & Exit Filter → Avoid trades when the score is neutral or indecisive.
Divergence Visualizer → Filled zones make it easier to see when MAs begin separating or converging.
Low History Required → Unlike most For Loops, this script does not require that much history, making it less lagging and more responsive
⚠️ Limitations
Works best in trending conditions; performance decreases in sideways/choppy ranges.
Sensitivity of signals depends on chosen length and ALMA settings.
Should not be used as a standalone buy/sell system—combine with volume, structure, or higher timeframe analysis.

Moving Averages With Continuous Periods [macp]This script reimagines traditional moving averages by introducing floating-point period calculations, allowing for fractional lengths rather than being constrained to whole numbers. At its core, it provides SMA, WMA, and HMA variants that can work with any decimal length, which proves especially valuable when creating dynamic indicators or fine-tuning existing strategies.
The most significant improvement lies in the Hull Moving Average implementation. By properly handling floating-point mathematics throughout the calculation chain, this version reduces the overshoot tendencies that often plague integer-based HMAs. The result is a more responsive yet controlled indicator that better captures price action without excessive whipsaw.
The visual aspect incorporates a trend gradient system that can adapt to different trading styles. Rather than using fixed coloring, it offers several modes ranging from simple solid colors to more nuanced three-tone gradients that help identify trend transitions. These gradients are normalized against ATR to provide context-aware visual feedback about trend strength.
From a practical standpoint, the floating-point approach eliminates the subtle discontinuities that occur when integer-based moving averages switch periods. This makes the indicator particularly useful in systems where the MA period itself is calculated from market conditions, as it can smoothly transition between different lengths without artificial jumps.
At the heart of this implementation lies the concept of continuous weights rather than discrete summation. Traditional moving averages treat each period as a distinct unit with integer indexing. However, when we move to floating-point periods, we need to consider how fractional periods should behave. This leads us to some interesting mathematical considerations.
Consider the Weighted Moving Average kernel. The weight function is fundamentally a slope: -x + length where x represents the position in the averaging window. The normalization constant is calculated by integrating (in our discrete case, summing) this slope across the window. What makes this implementation special is how it handles the fractional component - when the length isn't a whole number, the final period gets weighted proportionally to its fractional part.
For the Hull Moving Average, the mathematics become particularly intriguing. The standard HMA formula HMA = WMA(2*WMA(price, n/2) - WMA(price, n), sqrt(n)) is preserved, but now each WMA calculation operates in continuous space. This creates a smoother cascade of weights that better preserves the original intent of the Hull design - to reduce lag while maintaining smoothness.
The Simple Moving Average's treatment of fractional periods is perhaps the most elegant. For a length like 9.7, it weights the first 9 periods fully and the 10th period at 0.7 of its value. This creates a natural transition between integer periods that traditional implementations miss entirely.
The Gradient Mathematics
The trend gradient system employs normalized angular calculations to determine color transitions. By taking the arctangent of price changes normalized by ATR, we create a bounded space between 0 and 1 that represents trend intensity. The formula (arctan(Δprice/ATR) + 90°)/180° maps trend angles to this normalized space, allowing for smooth color transitions that respect market volatility context.
This mathematical framework creates a more theoretically sound foundation for moving averages, one that better reflects the continuous nature of price movement in financial markets. The implementation recognizes that time in markets isn't truly discrete - our sampling might be, but the underlying process we're trying to measure is continuous. By allowing for fractional periods, we're creating a better approximation of this continuous reality.
This floating-point moving average implementation offers tangible benefits for traders and analysts who need precise control over their indicators. The ability to fine-tune periods and create smooth transitions makes it particularly valuable for automated systems where moving average lengths are dynamically calculated from market conditions. The Hull Moving Average calculation now accurately reflects its mathematical formula while maintaining responsiveness, making it a practical choice for both systematic and discretionary trading approaches. Whether you're building dynamic indicators, optimizing existing strategies, or simply want more precise control over your moving averages, this implementation provides the mathematical foundation to do so effectively.
Smart Moving AveragesSmart Moving Averages analyzes the dynamic interplay between price action and multiple moving averages to identify high-probability support and resistance zones.
The script's distinguishing features include:
Bounce detection that filters out noise by requiring specific penetration thresholds (0.1-1.5%), helping traders identify genuine support tests versus false signals
Real-time MA clustering analysis that reveals zones where multiple moving averages converge, indicating potentially stronger support/resistance levels
Statistical tracking of bounce success rates for each MA, allowing traders to identify which moving averages are most reliable for the current market conditions
Power bounce detection that combines EMA spread analysis with trend confirmation, highlighting especially strong bullish setups
Visual stack status system that instantly communicates market health through an intuitive color-coded display showing how many MAs are below price
The script helps traders make more informed decisions by quantifying the historical reliability of different moving averages while providing real-time analysis of MA interactions with price. This systematic approach moves beyond simple MA crossovers to identify higher probability trading opportunities.
Day Trader's Anchored Moving Averages [wbburgin]For day traders, establishing a trend at the start of the day is critically important for setting targets and entering positions. This can be difficult when traditional moving averages lag from previous days, causing late entry and/or incorrect trend interpretation.
The Day Trader's Anchored MA indicator plots three dynamic moving averages which restart on each new period (session or monthly - more coming soon). This eliminates the lag in traditional moving averages while better identifying the trend, as the moving averages essentially 'build up' their lengths as the day progresses, until they reach your chosen maximum length.
This means that these anchored moving averages are
Quicker to identify the start-of-day trend, as markets tend to establish and then follow one trend throughout the day;
Dynamically increasing throughout the day (to your specifications)
Completely independent from previous days
Quick usage note: make sure that your moving average length is less than the number of bars in the period, or it won't reach the maximum length you specified.
TL;DR: Moving average that resets every day and does not lag. Inspired by the VWAP.

DEMA / EMA moving averagesSince a moving average averages values, they lag recent price action. So when there’s a sudden price spike or when a new trend begins, the moving average is a bit late to the party. Over the years several people have developed moving averages that reduce price lag as much as possible.
One of those tweaked moving averages is the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA). This indicator was introduced by Patrick Mulloy in a 1994 article named “Smoothing Data With Faster Moving Averages” (Mitchell, 2019).
You can easily switch DEMA or EMA averages and show crossover signals
