Hi Forexboss...have you been able to achieve something? thanks

Hi Gabroo_munda,

What apears to be flat to the naked eye doesn't mean that matematicly it is flat. On the image I placed triggerlines. They change color when the slope of the triggerlines changes. The indicator seems flat to the naked eye (white elips) but matematicly it reacts on the smallest price change.
So if you would find someone who can color the slope of the AMA indicator it will exactly do the same as were you see the dots change color.
The AMA indicator has the great capacity to stay flat in some market conditions. Meaning that when price stayes flat or horizontal the AMA doesn't want move towards the price were other MA's are moving back to the price. If that sideways period takes to long, every other MA and price will meet and will cause a lot a false crossings to happen. But the AMA doesn't do that it stays on a certain level and stays horizontal. But as I said, that horizontal to the naked eye is not the same as been perfectly horizontal in real matematic values. The smallest movement of price will have a very small impact on the value of every kind of MA even the AMA...

friendly regards...iGoR
