Need a Better Moving Average? Try the NMA

Hey guys, I wrote these indicators using Jim Sloman's formulas, which you can read about in his "Ocean Book". The first is call the natural moving average, based on 20 bar calculation. The second is using the natural market river formula and moving average based on the river data.

Entry rules - check 3 timeframes for a 0-line cross of the red line on the NMR indicator, and a close above the NMA. This indicator was also effective as a multi-time frame indicator.

Exit - the red NMR average line re-enters the outer yellow band, after breaching it. Or if it didn't make it to the outer band you can exit when it touches the opposite band or the 0 line. You can also exit if you get a close on the other side of the NMA.

Trying to work out the longer time frames starting with daily 4hr and hourly as a basis for alerts and 5 minute for entries. Assume we could use gann lines or fib lines from previous sessions as exits and adr/1.5 for exits, that seems like a reasonable system. Not sure this works any better than conventional ma systems though. We need the mystical time element =) I;m sure dustohvino will be able to input something for the 4th dimension =)


Take a look on the 5minute and see what I am seeing.

upated to use heiken ashi bars for profit exits--when the bar goes to the oppsite direction on a 5 minute close take profits. If the NMA reverses exit for a loss.
