A fast average that tries to cut the lag.
The Hull MA combines weighted averages of different lengths to follow the price with very little delay, while staying fairly smooth.
Its direction (rising or falling) is often used rather than crossings with price.
Worked out by the same code the builder uses, on stored daily candles. Move a setting and the line moves with it. This is what happened, not what will happen.
Entry: Hull MA(21) is rising.
Less lag also means more false turns in sideways markets.
