Riker66 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 Hello , couldn´t find the VMA indicator by Chande. I don´t mean the ViDYA indicator which is often mistaken for the VMA. Someone programmed the VMA for tradingview and Tos which isn´t original in their systems. Is there a way to implement it here?

0 Jerry Medved Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 you have formula or link to one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mike Medved Posted March 18, 2020 Report Share Posted March 18, 2020 Ok I looked it up. It will be in next beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DavidE Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Thanks for this, looks like it maybe useful. But I've only been able to get it to work on chart types: "Tick OHLC (HA)". Also, only when based On: "(H+L+C+O)". Take care and be safe thru all of the current craziness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Riker66 Posted April 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 I guess Mike posted a picture of the ViDYA Indicator and not of the classic VMA which i meant. It´s not the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mike Medved Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 The VMA I implemented is the one where EMA is modified by the volatility index. It is claimed to be from Chande too. And yes it is "VIDYA". http://etfhq.com/blog/2011/02/22/variable-moving-average-vma-volatility-index-dynamic-average-vidya/ The VI that is used in our calculations is the Efficiency Ratio. You may be looking at VMA that uses a different VI. What would it be? What is the formula of the one you want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Riker66 Posted April 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 I found a description here:https://usethinkscript.com/threads/chande-variable-moving-average-indicator-for-thinkorswim.544/#post-4111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mike Medved Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 So he's using some other kind of Volatility indicator as the input to VMA. I wish I knew what it is called - so if I make it an option inside VMA, I'd know what to put in the selection box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Riker66 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Sorry i hardly understand the formula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Riker66 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 A VMA is an EMA that is able to regulate its smoothing percentage based on market inconstancy automatically. Its sensitivity grows by providing more weight to the ongoing data as it generates a better signal indicator for short and long-term markets. The majority of ways for measuring Moving Averages cannot compensate for sideways moving prices versus trending markets and often generate a lot of false signals. Longer-term moving averages are slow to react to reversals in trend when prices move up and down over a long period of time. A Variable Moving Average regulates its sensitivity and lets it function better in any market conditions by using automatic regulation of the smoothing constant. The Variable Moving Average is also known as the VIDYA Indicator. But this version is a modified concept of the VIDYA. The Variable Moving Average was developed by Tushar S. Chande and first presented in his March, 1992 article in Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine, in which a standard deviation was used as the Volatility Index. In his October, 1995 article in the same magazine, Chande modified the VIDYA to use his own Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) as the Volatility Index, the VMA code above (posted on thinkscript) is the result of this modification.

0 Mike Medved Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 I am looking. I can implement that, but I would do it as an option inside the VMA - as in "VI type" selection. The current one would be "Efficiency Ratio". Have to find out which one is the one that that LazyBear used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
