The AMA STL Color Trend Indicator is a modified version of the adaptive Kaufman Moving Average (AMA).
As is well known, standard moving averages suffer from lag. The Kaufman AMA eliminates this drawback by dynamically adjusting its calculation period based on current market conditions.
The AMA STL Color Trend Indicator is displayed as a single line that changes color depending on the relative positions of two moving averages defined in the indicator’s settings.
In addition, the indicator includes a built-in noise filter to smooth out market volatility.
Thanks to its timely response to price changes, the AMA STL Color Trend Indicator is more responsive than conventional moving averages — making it suitable across multiple timeframes.
