Re: Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) indicators MT4

AMA to KAMA crossover system based on Vitali Apirine's strategy


Original indicator from Mladen Rakic from MT5.

This is version for MT4.

Theory

In “Adaptive Moving Averages” in this issue, author Vitali Apirine introduces an adaptive moving average (AMA) technique based on Perry Kaufman’s KAMA (Kaufman adaptive moving average). His update to the original KAMA allows the new method to account for the location of the close relative to the high–low range. The author describes a trading system that combines the AMA and KAMA, suggesting that the combination may reduce the number of whipsaws relative to using either moving average by itself.

As a logical step there is a system that is combining the two indicators : this AMA and Perry Kaufman's KAMA. The signals produced that way are interesting and can be used as a sort of atrading system already

Usage

You can use the color change (or the appearance of the arrow) of this indicator as signal

This indicator have separate options for AMA and KAMA settings, alerts, arrows and button...

The article which outlined this strategy and approach in 2018 has been attached (includes the MetaStock code for KAMA and AMA).
