Moving average from moving average

New comment
 
Hello. Please suggest an indicator in which a moving average is built from another moving average.
 

um... do you see the point in this? i.e. is the MA indicator built on a different MA?

wouldn't it be easier to increase the period in the MA settings?)))

 

Try the MACD.

 

MA from MA - you get a smoother curve...

the graph below shows three curves

yellow is the initial period of the MA

blue is MA from MA

and the pink one is MA with the period twice as long as the initial one

this indicator shows the difference of MA: MA[x]-MA[x+n] (ROC)

you can see that the double MA has a smoother curve

Could you show me the code? =)

 
I use my own functions that I wrote based on those formulas that use smoothing...

yes also SMAOnArray uses a cyclic summing array to reduce summing cycles

//--------------------------------- MathCyclePrext -----------------------------------
// Cycle Countter to Prev or Next
int MathCyclePrext(int Index,int iIncrease,int iMaxIndex,int iMinIndex)
{
Index= Index+ iIncrease;
while ( Index< iMinIndex) Index= iMaxIndex-( iMinIndex- Index)+1;
while ( Index> iMaxIndex) Index= iMinIndex+( Index- iMaxIndex)-1;
return( Index);
}

Keep cascading low-pass filters and you'll end up in a bind
