3.5.2.24 Mmovavg

Mmovavg-func

Description

This function is for calculating modified moving averages. Average value at the starting point = n is calculated by Movavg function, and then other points are calculated by formula similar to Emovavg function with weighting factor .

where is the nth point calculated by movavg(x, n-1,0).

Syntax

vector mmovavg(vector vd, int n)

Parameters

vd

The data vector used to calculate modified moving average.

n

is the timeperiod.

Return

Return the modified moving average vector.

Example

// Col(2) will be filled with modified moving average value at each point, with stating point = 10. 

for(ii=1;ii<=30;ii++) col(1)[ii] = ii;
col(2)=mmovavg(col(1),10);
