Ticker AMA: Visualizing Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average Against Price

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

Ticker AMA is a chart indicator that displays a colored cloud between the market price and Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average (AMA). The visual encodes the relationship between the price and the adaptive average, allowing a trader to see when price lies on either side of the indicator and how that gap changes over time.

The description provides no entry or exit rules, parameter settings, benchmark, or performance evidence. It does not explain how the cloud colors are assigned or establish that price crossings predict future returns. Accordingly, the item is best understood as a visualization of an adaptive trend reference rather than a complete trading strategy. Any use as a signal would require separate specification and testing.

Key ideas

  • The indicator plots a colored cloud between price and Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average.
  • The display visualizes the relative position of price and the adaptive average.
  • The description gives no trading rules, parameter choices, or evidence of predictive performance.
