Millard uses a fixed width band which you can replicate using %. A longer
term ATR works better for longer time series. For either you will need to
fine tune the band for each security you are analyzing. You will also get a
smoother MA and band using a centered triangular average.

How do you built an envelope based on the centred MA? I have tried Stdev and
ste both are not the best candidates.

The centered MA is a "true" MA, in that the average is plotted
against the
middle number of the series, not the end one. It is used in cycle
analysis.
If you are interested, look at J.M.Hurst's work.
