3rd Generation MA based on research paper by Dr. Mafred Durschner:

Offers least possible lag but still provides price smoothing

Mladen, master of the time, space and matter in MQL world and one who knows last digit of PI, I would link to hear your opinion about 3rd Generation of MA, please find attached link. Btw. this is my 3rd time posting same post :(

Best!

Yes, but unless the average is looping, volume weighted mode can not be applied (it is simply because the way how it is calculated)

girrrrrrr ...... double
 
krelian99:

Very strange that all here :)

volume weighted (VW) sounds good.

What is strange?
 

Here is one highly experimental thing : T3 that can use the volume weighted price (it can not be directly volume weighted due to nature of the T3)

Did you try to use the version with Bartel test?
Maybe better to use discretional decision for dominant cycles (forex is far from being without noise)

If that is the code, then, if I remember correctly, it is the renamed John Ehlers attempt to make "zero lag" average (which one did Ehlers used - renamed - is yet to see :))

Hello, Mladen. Please make me the indicator on the pattern "Folding meter Likhovidov"

No idea what is that

Could you please provide the whole logic (and math) for it?
