*** NOTE: This is a repost with updated scripts to workaround the recent script engine changes ****
As the volatility rises, all Adaptive Moving Averages (AMA) become more sensitive and adapt faster to the price changes. As the volatility decreases, they slow down significantly compared to normal EMA . This makes it an excellent choice for detecting ranging markets (look for horizontal lines).
I have included 3 AMAs here:
- Kaufman's AMA. This makes use of Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio as the smoothing constant.
- Adaptive RSI . This adapts standard RSI to a smoothing constant.
- Tushar Chande's Variable Index Dynamic Average ( VIDYA ). This uses a pivotal smoothing constant, which is fixed, and varies the speed by using a factor based on the relative volatility to increase or decrease the value of SC .
For reference, I have plotted an EMA (10). This uses a fixed smoothing constant.
This is my 25th indicators post (Yayy!), so decided to include a bunch of AMAs. Enjoy :)
Feel free to "Make mine" and use these in your charts. Appreciate any comments / feedback.
