Re: Moving Average indicators for MT4

Here are the two Adaptive Smoothing indicators by Mladen that were coded for MT4 which were very interesting codes that deserve a spot in our Moving Averages thread.

As explained by Mladen:
Some time ago, as an answer to one question in an email regarding something called "3rd generation ma", I answered that it is not difficult to make a faster moving average, but that it is difficult to make a faster usable moving average.

This is one kind (one variation) of an adaptive EMA I have been playing with. It is adapting by measuring its previous errors and if the error raises, it speeds up, otherwise it is staying in a slower (smoother) phase. So, in short, if it made an error on previous attempt it adapts on new attempt in order to make the error as little as it can. Here is an example of a 14 period smoothed average with the average on a main chart and alphas it applied (smoothing constants) to average calculation in the sub-window

As you can see, when the market gets more volatile, it uses higher alpha values (which means faster response to price changes) and vice versa. Now, the "trouble" is that it is almost too good in adapting. Here is an example of a 50 period average and 50 period alpha.

As it is obvious, even with longer period error checking, it is adapting (minimizing previous errors and that way preventing previous error accumulation) so well that it is impossible to cause significant lag, and that way we can not use this one as usual moving averages. It can be used as a rather good filter (it is simple to use, it can be adapted easily to work on any value,... ), but as a "classical" moving average, due to it being "too fast" ... well, I leave that to users :)

Continuing on from our archives of files "to post", this is the WEVOMO (Weight + Volume + Move-Adjusted Moving Average) for MT4 which was coded by Mladen.

As explained by Mladen:
In April 2005 issue of TAS&C Stephan Bisse in his article "Weight + Volume + Move-Adjusted

Moving Average: It’s "WEVOMO!" proposed some new ways of calculating moving averages. The new ones included : Movement-adjusted moving average (Moma), a version of Volume-adjusted moving average (Vama), a combination of Moma+Vama and Moma+Vama+Lwma (linear weighted moving average). This one adds Moma+Lwma and Vama+Lwma combination as a logical end to have all the possible combinations covered

All have one thing in common : they are weighted moving averages with different methods of "weighting" each price in the final result calculation.

Of MaTypeparameter :

  • 0 - Moma
  • 1 - Vama
  • 2 - Moma+Vama
  • 3 - Moma+Lwma
  • 4 - Vama+Lwma

anything else - Moma+Vama+Lwma

This is the Tim Morris Moving Average for MT4 which was re-coded from scratch by Mladen a few years ago.

As explained by Mladen:
It has been unrightfully neglected. Some of the properties it has (the very very quick response to sudden price changes and still very smooth in calmer periods) makes it a one of a very few that are able to response so quickly at a averaged value change (for example even the all known Jurik MA lags in some cases behind this moving average).

This version is a rewritten from scratch (a completely new indicator made) in order to avoid some of the problems the first posted version had (especially one case when the original could repaint) and it has been made a "normal" (no restrictions in bars, choosable price, and simplified code) indicator now. Along with the properties it has I think it is worth using it.

Here is another interesting indicator for MT4 which was optimized by Mladen back in the day called the Moving Averages Ray :)

As a simple, standalone indicator this is Mladen's non-repainting Moving Average Color. Although it's an older indicator without user-friendly options, we're missing this one on the forum so I'll post it here in case someone needs it or wants to improve on it or use it as a learning tool for coding.

This is the "2 MA's" non-repainting indicator by Mladen which he made some time ago. Simple and effective.

i couldn't find and indicator that Hull MA crosses one of 4 basic MAs with alert. i missed it or can you make it.

Best Regards
Hi Paroucia, have you seen our Hull Moving Average Indicators for MT4 thread? I'm 99.9% certain the indicator you are looking for is in there (plus more). Let us know if you have any issues :)
