I used to play around with those things a lot...  MA or exponential MA?  Or
maybe Linear Regression instead?  Or maybe some fancy noise-based system?
Well, there are just 2 ways to go: more lag and less whipsaws, or less lag
and more whipsaws.  However fancy the XXX indicator is, its interaction with
price/time geometry still remains the same.  But maybe I have missed the
whole point completely...
