Re: Lag In Moving Avg To: "Metastock List" <metastock@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Lag In Moving Avg From: "Vitaly Larichev" <vitaly-l@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 10 Feb 2001 19:43:09 -0500 References: 4.2.1.20010210135126.00bf67a0@xxxx <200102102152.f1ALqsQ78610@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reply-To: metastock@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sender: owner-metastock@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Bob Webb is exactly right, and said it very well. It's > not possible to remove the lag from a moving average. I concur with it. An improvement still available here is to dynamically change the period in MA; MS syntax doesn't allow it :-( . For instance, considering that the tops are accompanied by high volatility, one can make a formula for MA with the period inversely varying with the volatility, or ,say, ROC for that matter. In fact, the following formula posted on the list is built on this idea, though implicitly: {From Metastock List of Wed, 03 May 2000 14:07:04 GMT From: "j seed" <jseed_10@xxxxxxxxxxx>; I changed Close to P} |

Zero Lag EMA Period:= Input("What Period",1,250,10); EMA1:= Mov(P,Period,E); EMA2:= Mov(EMA1,Period,E); Difference:= EMA1 - EMA2; ZeroLagEMA:= EMA1 + Difference; ZeroLagEMA |
I like it, I use it. To smooth it out further, one may apply it twice with smaller period for the second. But again, you cannot make the lag zero! All said, I was impressed by Jeff's trendline (http://www.digital-web.net/~haferman/plot.html). Very good, indeed! Jeff, can you expand a bit what's it - "non-linear trendline"? If it doesn't sound too nosy, of course  .Cheers, Vitaly [596] Peter Martin alakazam@bigpond.com | |
