Rounding and Coloring an Almost-Lagless LWMA Price Label

Article MQL5 code base
Read the original

Summary

This note describes a display feature for an almost-lagless weighted moving average indicator. Its latest value is shown as a price label, and a user-defined input controls how many decimal digits are used to round that value. The label is green when the closing price is above the moving average and red when it is below.

The document explains presentation and configuration rather than a trading rule or tested strategy. It provides no performance evidence, signal thresholds, or guidance on choosing the rounding precision. The color conveys the close's position relative to the average, but the note does not establish that this relationship predicts future price moves.

Key ideas

  • The indicator displays its latest moving-average value as a price label.
  • A configurable input sets the number of digits used to round the displayed value.
  • The label is green above the moving average and red below it.
  • The document gives no trading results or evidence that the color change is predictive.
