An average that speeds up when price runs away from it.
John McGinley built a correction into the formula: the further price is from the line, the faster the line catches up.
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.
Gate: Price close is above McGinley dynamic(14).
The correction uses a fourth power. On a violent candle it can overshoot, and on thin data it can become unstable.
