Now that you explain its just my thoughts as well........ I can see Jurik is faster and no lag smoothing but looks more choppy than RMA for seeing big trends...... In all this time I still think Jurik is the best smoothing algorithm if you are scalping and followed by the glorious RMA because the RMA shows less noise movements and is not as slow as other smoothing techniquesmrtools wrote: Wed Jan 08, 2025 11:16 am Wouldn't say superior, jma in my opinion is faster and smoother, but rma gets you into some long trend runs but lags many bars behind jma, but sometimes the lag isn't so bad if it keeps you in the original trend. So would say they are close to equal in their own ways. Sometimes I think they would make a good team, check out this with both at 50 period. The 50 period jma hugging price and the 50-period rolling ma giving a long-term trend look. That is how I see it, sure others will think different.
In my demonstration below the blue line is RMA
Yellow line is Jurik filter ma
Both are 21 period
