What does Pascal WMA measure?
A moving average with bell-shaped weights, so the middle of the window matters most and both ends taper off gently.
How is Pascal WMA calculated?
Average the last 10 closes, weighting them by the numbers in Pascal's triangle (1, 4, 6, 4, 1 for a five-candle window).
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 Pascal WMA in a bot?
In the builder, add an indicator of type pwma (parameters: length, default 10). 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.
