Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] curve smoothing question



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

smoothing=averaging ????
averaging=lagging ???

either at some point or another i don't think there's
a short cut thru it....

using the "if" function i once tried to reduce the
need for long averages by "filtering" data
the idea was to use one average of previous bar with 
great volatility and another average of bars with low
volatility (average of the X previous bars with a
above average (h-l) range and another average ofX
previous  bars with small ranges)

it was cool at times when used as main average for
other indicators but because of the *¨%^$µ limitation
in MS (try mov(specialMA(5),4,s)-mov(specialMA(5),20))
i gave up

i have to add i'm usually a fan of KISS trading
