Smoothed Sensitive MA — Indicator by BakwaasTrading

movingaverage wma smma ssma

This moving average is sensitive and reacts quickly to significant price movements, while remaining indifferent to small price moves.

Smoothed Sensitive MA is triple weighted for price changes.

It takes in one parameter "Length", which is used as both
1. the lookback period for price change,
zCC=abs(close-close[len])

and also as
2. the number of periods to be averaged
zSSMA=sum(zCC*zCC*zCC*close,len)/sum(zCC*zCC*zCC,len)

Alternatively, you could modify the script to use two separate parameters for values for 1 and 2.

Release Notes:

This version handles reversals better.
