Double-Smoothed EMA with Floating Levels and Color Signals

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The document briefly introduces a version of a double-smoothed exponential moving average indicator that adds floating levels. It says users can choose how the indicator colors are determined: by crossings of the outer levels, by crossings of the middle level, or by a change in slope. The color changes are proposed as signals for use by a trader.

The description refers readers to a separate explanation of the underlying double-smoothed EMA, but that material is not included here. It provides no formulas, parameter guidance, examples, backtest, or evidence that any of the coloring choices predict future price movements. As a result, the text conveys the available signal modes but not a complete method for applying or evaluating them. Traders would need the indicator's detailed specification and independent testing to assess the behavior and usefulness of these signals.

Key ideas

  • The indicator adds floating levels to a double-smoothed exponential moving average.
  • Coloring can be based on outer-level crossings, middle-level crossings, or slope changes.
  • The document suggests using color changes as signals but does not define trade rules.
  • It provides no formulas, parameter advice, or performance evidence.
