Adaptive Moving Average

An Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) is one more moving average overlay, just like EMA. It changes its sensitivity to price fluctuations. The Adaptive Moving Average becomes more sensitive during periods when price is moving in a certain direction and becomes less sensitive to price movement when price is volatile.

To apply an Adaptive Moving Average Indicator

  1. From within a chart, from the Edit menu select Studies.
  2. Choose Adaptive Moving Average and click Add to add the study.
  3. Complete parameters as necessary.

Once the study is defined, you can elect to uncheck/check to remove and add the study to your chart.
