JMA

JMA indicator is a powerful VertexFX client-side trend-following indicator that provides excellent insights into the current trend of the market and generates precise entry and exit signals. The Jurik Moving Average (JMA) is a specially designed moving average that adapts dynamically to the market condition to generate the moving average. Unlike most of the moving average methods which are static, where the period does not change, the JMA uses the reference JMA LENGTH as the starting point to calculate the moving averages. It then detects the market cycles to adapt itself, and then dynamically computes the period used to calculate the moving average. A market cycle (which starts from a bottom to top, or vice versa) is made of amplitude and phase. The amplitude is the strength of the signal, and phase is the duration of the signal.
In the first step, we calculate the change in closing prices of the recent JMA LENGTH period. In the second step, the log-normal returns of the absolute change in the closing prices is calculated. In the next step, we calculate the standard deviation from the previous step. Based on the previous step, we calculate the phase cycle of the standard deviation. Finally, we calculate the last step, which is the Jurik Moving Average by normalizing the price and the standard deviation calculated from the previous step.
