The KAMA Indicator Calculation | How and why it works | Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average

This episode looks at how and why the calculation of the Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average KAMA indicator works. This helps with an understanding of the advantages that adaptive indicators like this can have over standard static indicators.
Because the formula uses the Kaufman Efficiency Ratio to adjust its parameters this means it can help to negate the effects of noise on trend following systems. The Kaufman adaptive moving average does this using an ingenious technique to speed up or slow down the moving average periods, based on what's required to avoid the effects of noise.

    Hey for an idea...I found out something known as VAMA(volatility adjusted moving average)...For the volatility series that'd be coming up... A comparison will open new concepts and conclusions.

    @@TradeLikeAMachine one more question... After considering instantaneous noise, what to combine to with it to strengthen the assumption that 1) mean reversion or 2) trend will continue for a finite time after we enter a trade. Like how to increase those chances.

    So basically, its a low pass filter where its cut off frequency is anchored on noise measurement.

    Once you try MT5 and the things you can do with MQL5, you're never gonna go back to MT4.
