Description
Featured in John F. Ehlers' article from
July 2018 issue of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine, the DSMA (deviation-scaled moving average) is an adaptive moving average that rapidly adapts to volatility in price movement. It accomplishes this by modifying the alpha term of an EMA by the amplitude of an oscillator scaled in standard deviations from the mean. The DSMA's responsiveness can be changed by using different values for the input parameter
period.
Interpretation
- Use the same rules that we apply to EMA when interpreting DSMA.
