The MACD series is the difference between a "fast" (short period) exponential moving average (EMA), and a "slow" (longer period) EMA of the price series. The average series is an EMA of the MACD series itself. The MACD indicator thus depends on three time parameters, namely the time constants of the three EMAs.
Moving average envelope is a technical analysis indicator, showing lines above and below a moving average. [1] The starting point is a simple or exponential N-period moving average which is calculated as the average of the stock price for each of the previous N periods (usually days). The moving average envelope consist of an upper envelope ...
A moving average is commonly used with time series data to smooth out short-term fluctuations and highlight longer-term trends or cycles - in this case the calculation is sometimes called a time average. The threshold between short-term and long-term depends on the application, and the parameters of the moving average will be set accordingly.
The zero lag exponential moving average (ZLEMA) is a technical indicator within technical analysis that aims is to eliminate the inherent lag associated to all trend following indicators which average a price over time.
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.
Bollinger Bands consist of an N-period moving average (MA), an upper band at K times an N-period standard deviation above the moving average (MA + Kσ), and a lower band at K times an N-period standard deviation below the moving average (MA − Kσ). The chart thus expresses arbitrary choices or assumptions of the user, and is not strictly ...
The average rate for shorter 15-year terms is 6.25% for purchase and 6.24% for refinance, down 9 basis points from 6.34% for purchase and 11 basis points from 6.35% for refinance this time last week.
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 ...
