XP Moving Average Settings
Hi folks,
I've asked to write a brief description of the
Moving Average types and Applied Price used with
xpMa!
It's OK! But I want to affirm that :
"XP Moving Average is a normal moving
average indicator with 2 extra features:
1- It uses the normal Moving Average Types plus
the most used another added types
(ex: TEMA, JMA, HMA etc) in one place.
So, you can use only one Moving Average indicator
for all of your needs!
2- It colors itself according to the direction
of the Moving Average!"
