xpMA Indicator Settings
Hi folks,
I've been 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 anothermoving average types 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.
