Overview

Hampel Filter calculates the rolling median and Median Absolute Deviation (MAD) of the chosen source series over a specified length. When a data point exceeds the user-defined scaling factor multiplied by the MAD, it is treated as an outlier and replaced with the median value. Finally, it plots an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the filtered values, providing a noise-reduced trend line.
