The Triangular Moving Average, otherwise known as TMA, is an optimized version of the moving average indicator for the MetaTrader 5 platform. This technical indicator smoothed the price of an asset, making it responsive in identifying trend reversals more effectively.
Unlike the traditional moving average, the TMA indicator is very responsive, lags less behind the price, and filters market noise. Therefore, it accurately identifies trend reversal and direction of the market compared to the moving regular average.
Features of the TMA Indicator for MT5
The TMA indicator is a multi-timeframe tool displayed as a line on the price chart, enabling traders to identify the trends and trading opportunities across multiple time frames. It depicts a bullish trend when the price of an instrument crosses above the line, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
Conversely, a bearish trend is when the price closes below the TMA line, which suggests a potential selling opportunity. Furthermore, the indicator allows users to customize the parameters to their trading styles and preferences. For instance, traders can adjust the indicator’s period to suit their strategies.
