MaByMa: A Moving Average Applied to a Moving Average

Summary

MaByMa is described as a colored cloud built by applying one moving average to another average of the price series. The document presents it as an alternative signal for simple trend systems that normally use crossings between two moving averages. It says the author’s studies found significant advantages over a two-average system and recommends switching, but it provides no study design, market sample, performance figures, or supporting analysis in the supplied text.

The material also notes that the indicator depends on an external smoothing library for its MQL implementation and references a separate article about intermediate averaging. The underlying concept is straightforward, but the document does not specify the averaging parameters, explain entry and exit rules, or discuss risk controls. Its performance claim therefore cannot be assessed from this description alone, and the indicator should not be treated as a fully documented or validated trading strategy.

Key ideas

• MaByMa smooths a price average by calculating another average over it.
• The indicator presents its signal as a colored cloud for trend-oriented use.
• It is framed as an alternative to trading crossings of two moving averages.
• The claim of improved signals is not accompanied by methods, data, or performance evidence here.
• The MQL implementation relies on an external smoothing library.
