The Smoothed Moving Average Envelope (SMMAE) indicatorplots two Smoothed Moving Averages (SMMAs) as upper and lower lines (envelopes) over a price chart. The envelopes indicate overbought and oversold conditions and can be shifted up and down by fixed percentage value.
SMMA1 = [Sumi-1 - SMMAi-1 + Closei] / n SMMA2 = [Sumi-1 - SMMAi-1 + Closei] / n
where: Sumi-1 – the sum of the source prices over all periods Closei – the current closing price n – the number of total periods
