What does Exp Hull MA measure?
A Hull-style trend line built from exponential averages: fast to turn, and smooth on the way.
How is Exp Hull MA calculated?
Take an exponential average over half of 16 candles, double it, and subtract an exponential average over the full 16. Then smooth that result again over roughly the square root of 16 candles.
Written by reading the engine’s real computation, not a textbook — where the two differ, the page describes what actually runs.
How do I use Exp Hull MA in a bot?
In the builder, add an indicator of type ehma (parameters: length, default 16). Its value becomes an operand you can compare in any entry or exit rule. The engine grades the whole rule honestly: real fills, no look-ahead, half the history held back.
