Indicator Description

EMA (Exponential Moving Average) is a commonly used technical analysis indicator that gives greater weight to recent price data, allowing it to reflect price changes more quickly.

Calculation Principle

EMA is calculated using the following formula:

EMA = (Price - EMA(previous)) * (2 / (timeperiod + 1)) + EMA(previous)

Where:

• Price is the current price
• EMA(previous) is the EMA value of the previous period
• timeperiod is the time period
