An exponential moving average (EMA), also known as an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA), [5] is a first-order infinite impulse response filter that applies weighting factors which decrease exponentially. The weighting for each older datum decreases exponentially, never reaching zero. This formulation is according to Hunter (1986). [6]
The idea is do a regular exponential moving average (EMA) calculation but on a de-lagged data instead of doing it on the regular data. Data is de-lagged by removing the data from "lag" days ago thus removing (or attempting to) the cumulative effect of the moving average.
Exponential smoothing or exponential moving average (EMA) is a rule of thumb technique for smoothing time series data using the exponential window function. Whereas in the simple moving average the past observations are weighted equally, exponential functions are used to assign exponentially decreasing weights over time. It is an easily learned ...
The calculation above finds the range between an asset's high and low price during a given period of time. The current security's price is then expressed as a percentage of this range with 0% indicating the bottom of the range and 100% indicating the upper limits of the range over the time period covered. [3]
The Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) is a technical indicator in technical analysis that attempts to remove the inherent lag associated with moving averages by placing more weight on recent values. The name suggests this is achieved by applying a triple exponential smoothing which is not the case.
Momentum is the change in an N-day simple moving average (SMA) between yesterday and today, with a scale factor N+1, i.e. + = This is the slope or steepness of the SMA line, like a derivative. This relationship is not much discussed generally, but it's of interest in understanding the signals from the indicator.
The Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) indicator was introduced in January 1994 by Patrick G. Mulloy, in an article in the "Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities" magazine: "Smoothing Data with Faster Moving Averages" [1] [2] It attempts to remove the inherent lag associated with Moving Averages by placing more weight on recent values.
A fast EMA responds more quickly than a slow EMA to recent changes in a stock's price. By comparing EMAs of different periods, the MACD series can indicate changes in the trend of a stock. It is claimed that the divergence series can reveal subtle shifts in the stock's trend. Since the MACD is based on moving averages, it is a lagging indicator ...
