Zero-Lag Hull Moving Average: A Faster Smoothed Trend Indicator

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The document introduces a zero-lag variation of the Hull Moving Average (HMA), a technical indicator developed to smooth price data while responding quickly to changes. It says the variant further reduces the lag associated with the HMA while retaining its smoothing characteristics, positioning it as a faster moving-average tool for chart analysis.

No formula, parameter settings, trading rules, chart examples, or performance evidence are provided. The claims about reduced lag and preserved smoothing therefore cannot be assessed from this text alone. It does not explain how the zero-lag adjustment is calculated or discuss possible trade-offs, such as sensitivity to noisy price moves. Traders would need the indicator definition and independent testing before using it to generate signals.

Key ideas

  • The zero-lag Hull Average is presented as a faster variation of the Hull Moving Average.
  • It aims to reduce lag while retaining smoothing.
  • The document gives no calculation method or empirical evidence for its claims.
