T3 MA

What does T3 MA measure?

A very smooth trend line that still tracks price closely. It is the answer to "I want an average with no lag and no jitter."

How is T3 MA calculated?

Run the close through six exponential averages of 5 candles in a chain, then recombine those six with fixed weights so most of the delay cancels out and only the smoothing survives.

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 T3 MA in a bot?

In the builder, add an indicator of type t3 (parameters: length, default 5). 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.
