Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (day)The KAMA will not change when the interval changes from day to something like 5 minutes or 30 minutes. Allows for more precise trading with the same indicator on a different interval.
Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA)
Kaufman Adaptive Moving AverageFrom Stockcharts.com:
"Developed by Perry Kaufman, Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) is a moving average designed to account for market noise or volatility. KAMA will closely follow prices when the price swings are relatively small and the noise is low. KAMA will adjust when the price swings widen and follow prices from a greater distance. This trend-following indicator can be used to identify the overall trend, time turning points and filter price movements."
This is different from other users' KAMA's because it allows the user to adjust more parameters that can adjust the indicator in more precise ways without needing to change the source code.

Golden Cross KAMAThe usage is very easy. When the line is green you can open long position, when the line is red you can open short position and when it's black just check by yourself.
Usually I use it with RSI and Bollinger Bands , in order to determine when the signal is strong or weak.
Just play with fastest and slowest SC to adjust the smoothness.
Kaufman Moving Average Adaptive (KAMA) Everyone wants a short-term, fast trading trend that works without large
losses. That combination does not exist. But it is possible to have fast
trading trends in which one must get in or out of the market quickly, but
these have the distinct disadvantage of being whipsawed by market noise
when the market is volatile in a sideways trending market. During these
periods, the trader is jumping in and out of positions with no profit-making
trend in sight. In an attempt to overcome the problem of noise and still be
able to get closer to the actual change of the trend, Kaufman developed an
indicator that adapts to market movement. This indicator, an adaptive moving
average (AMA), moves very slowly when markets are moving sideways but moves
swiftly when the markets also move swiftly, change directions or break out of
a trading range.
