The Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average Indicator (KAMA)

The Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) is the obvious choice to consider in terms of adaptive trading indicators for this series on Market Noise. This is because the KAMA uses the Efficiency Ratio - which is a measure of noise - to perform the adaptive adjustment of parameters to best handle market conditions.

Adaptive indicators provide advantages over standard static trading indicators by dynamically and automatically adjusting their parameters, with the sole intention of becoming more effective. The Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average does this based on the Efficiency Ratio, to allow the moving average periods to be adjusted and take maximum advantage of trends in trend-following trading strategies.
