Overview

Adaptive Moving Average blends a fast EMA (default length 2) with a slow EMA (default length 30) using an adaptive multiplier derived from the highest high and lowest low over the specified length. The AMA line plots directly on the price chart and is colored green when rising (indicating uptrend control) or purple when falling (losing direction). Settings allow customization of length, fast/slow lengths, source and movement highlighting. It signals trend strength via line direction and flattening. Based on everget's version. No exit rules as it is an indicator.
