In technical analysis we can state that it's all about filtering. Filtering the "insignificant", filtering the "false", and so on ... almost all technical indicators are designed to "filter" out something.

Wrapping my pea head around this.
So is filtering just like adding an invisible signal line? Or am I on the wrong path here? Filter Filter Filter... I know the folks on here can help me understand it!

Okay let me ask first....

On the options it's got:

Filter to use (<= 0, no filter)
Filter period (0 to use mi period)

If I were to input a filter of 2.0 is that like a Standard Deviation of 2.0?

And if I were to input a filter period of 9 is that like a signal line of 9 period moving average? Or am I just completely off track?
