Jurik Moving Average (JMA)

16 thg 3

Overview

Jurik Moving Average (JMA) is an adaptive moving average developed by Mark Jurik, widely regarded as one of the most powerful moving averages available to traders. This implementation provides a direct Pine Script translation of the reverse-engineered JMA algorithm

What Makes JMA Special
Unlike traditional moving averages, JMA adapts to market volatility in real-time. This "triple adaptive" approach allows JMA to:

• Reduce lag significantly while maintaining exceptional smoothness
  
• React quickly during trending markets
  
• Filter out noise during consolidation phases
  
• Provide clearer trend signals with fewer whipsaws
  

The Triple Adaptive Edge

JMA employs a three-stage smoothing process:

• Preliminary smoothing via an adaptive EMA
  
• Secondary smoothing using a Kalman filter with phase adjustment
  
• Final smoothing through a unique Jurik adaptive filter
  

This approach combines with a dynamic volatility-based factor (alpha) that adapts to market conditions, making JMA superior to traditional moving averages in most situations.

Key Parameters

Period: Controls the lookback period (default: 14)
Phase: Adjusts the heaviness of the indicator (-100 to 100, default: 0)

• Positive values reduce lag but may cause overshoot
  
• Negative values increase smoothness but reduce responsiveness
  

Power: Smoothing factor (0.1-0.9, default 0.45)

Higher values create smoother curves
Lower values create more responsive but choppy curves
