It is important to note that phase parameters for different smoothing algorithms have distinct meanings. For JMA, it is an external phase variable ranging from -100 to +100. For T3, it is a smoothing ratio multiplied by 100 for enhanced visualization. For VIDYA, it represents the CMO oscillator period, and for AMA, it is the slow EMA period. In other algorithms, these parameters do not influence smoothing. For AMA, the fast EMA period is a fixed value of 2 by default. The ratio of raising to the power is also 2 for AMA.
The indicator incorporates classes from the SmoothAlgorithms.mqh library. These classes must be copied to the terminal_data_folder\mql5\include directory. The usage of these classes has been comprehensively detailed in the referenced article.
This indicator was originally developed for MQL4 and published on September 19, 2026.
