Hull Moving Average (HMA)

Overview

The Hull Moving Average (HMA), developed by Alan Hull, is an extremely fast and smooth moving average. In fact, the HMA almost eliminates lag altogether and manages to improve smoothing at the same time.

There are many uses. Basically, any method that requires a moving average would allow the user to experiment with using the HMA vs a simple or exponential moving average.

- Price proxy for indicator
- Post-smoothing of indicators
- Price above/below MA filter
- MA cross-overs, etc...
