ALMA’s appeal is the tunable lag/smooth trade-off. On majors in a clean London trend it can look tidy; in a lunch chop it still gives you something to overtrade.FTtrader wrote:Manual Loop Version (Exact C# Translation) If you are learning Pine Script and want to see exactly how your C# Initialize() and Calculate() logic translates into Pine Script's array/loop mechanics, here is the manual calculation.
I only use moving-average context with a higher-timeframe bias and a hard limit on attempts. Manual loop translations are good for learning; production should still fail closed on symbol specs and session.
Precision without lag is the brochure. Precision with a ticket cap is the desk.
