About

Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) adjusts its smoothing constant via Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio — fast in trends, very slow in chop. The line is the original adaptive MA that most modern adaptive tools descend from.

  • Wide stops-and-reverses in trend, almost flat in sideways ranges.
  • Raise N for steadier adaptive behaviour; lower it for snappier turns.
  • Use as a single-line trend filter rather than a crossover.
