How to use the three VMA4 files-

The files are used in a different way from the past in order to have the 3 vma lines with or without the fantail.

To use the fantail-
First add FantailVMA4.tpl as a template,
then add FantailVMA4Turbo.mq4 as an indicator to get the vma lines.

To use just the vma lines without a fantail-
Add FantailVMA4Turbo.mq4 as an indicator.

Don't add FantailVMA4.mq4 as in indicator in either case as it will only give you the first yellow line of the fantail...

I will attempt to "translate" VMA4 into VT type statements that may be more useful for others to follow than the MT4 version.
But I won't be attempting to actually code it on VT.

I ended up doing three vma lines so it got more complicated instead of less complicated.

I still have more to do on vma, months maybe.
Although vma4 seems like the first "trader friendly" version, I feel like I have only got to the start of understanding how it works, certainly not near the end, not nearly mastered yet.

Would also like to get an excel version running, but where is all the time supposed to come from?
Cheers

Hello PYenner, thank you very much for your excellent explanation about how to construct the VMA. This is very helpful and will I start from there in trying to code it for Ensign Software.

You are right, coding certainely take a lot of time and it is a big learning process all by itself.

Sincerely

Shreem

Great explanations Bruce ¡¡... I know we all suffer here from the same problem "lack of time"... forget about cci... I think vma optimizations as you are doing is the way at this point.


Blu-Ray: some time today I will post some charts with the cci adding... cheers Walter.

I see you changed the colors to make fastest yellow.
I used red because it needs caution, can change direction, zigzag.

Doesnt matter so long as it works for you.
Darn, also meant to attach fantail to slowest line so it doesn't block the view of the price action so much, looks like I automatically put it on the fastest line. Oh well.
Lack of sleep.... just caught up, zombie stuff.

This chart is : fantailvma3 template plus fantailvma4 standalone line (red)...

I know Bruce it was not your intention to give this type of use to this line, but I find it a nice clean "signal" line to the vma3 baseline (yellow)... all experimental here.... cheers Walter.

There might be a VT version of vma4 coming.
VT would probably be easier to convert into ensign, but just guessing about that.

Yes experimenting is a good way to discover things...

So long as the dam doesnt break and let it all flood out...

Thanks PYenner, that would be much appreciated, as then I should be able to code it into TS.

I am so glad Bruce not to be Anoying ¡¡ thanks for telling me that... you know you have a first seat on the "Tokyo Gang"...

my question here... fantailvma3 inputs :

ADX_Length : 2
Weighting : 2

is there a chance this inputs could get to a minimum of 1.5 ?...

is that actually posible... I really dont know how the formula works, thats why I ask.... thanks Walter.

Hello PYenner, thank for the input about a possible coming version of FantailVMA4 for VT statement. I will certainely look into that and see how to get it coded in Ensign.

Sincerely
