Refactor documentation for various filters and indicators to enhance clarity and consistency
- Updated Bessel, Bilateral, Blma, Butter, Conv, Ema, Kama, LSMA, MAMA, MGDI, SSF, USF, ATR, ADL, and ADOSC documentation to use bullet points for key concepts and features. - Added a new Qodana configuration file for code analysis. - Removed coverage configuration from Quantower.Tests.csproj to streamline testing setup.

# Moving Average Envelope
|
||||
|
||||
Moving Average Envelope consists of three lines: a moving average in the middle and two lines plotted at a fixed percentage above and below it. The envelope provides a simple way to identify potential support and resistance levels based on a percentage deviation from the average price.
|
||||
|
||||
## Calculation
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Middle = MA(Source, Length)
|
||||
Upper = Middle + (Middle × Percentage/100)
|
||||
Lower = Middle - (Middle × Percentage/100)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Where:
|
||||
* MA = Moving Average (can be SMA, EMA, or WMA)
|
||||
* Source = Price series (typically close price)
|
||||
* Length = Lookback period for moving average
|
||||
* Percentage = Fixed percentage for band width
|
||||
|
||||
## Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
* Source (default: close) - Price series used for the moving average
|
||||
* Length (default: 20) - Period used for moving average calculation
|
||||
* Percentage (default: 1.0) - Fixed percentage distance from MA to bands
|
||||
* MA Type (default: 1) - Moving average type: 0:SMA, 1:EMA, or 2:WMA
|
||||
|
||||
## Interpretation
|
||||
|
||||
* The middle line shows the average price trend
|
||||
* Upper and lower bands create a channel based on fixed percentage
|
||||
* Price reaching the bands may indicate overbought/oversold conditions
|
||||
* Unlike volatility-based bands, envelope width changes proportionally with price
|
||||
* Band penetration may signal potential trend reversals
|
||||
* Works best in trending markets with consistent volatility
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
The implementation includes:
|
||||
* Choice of three moving average types (SMA, EMA, WMA)
|
||||
* Optimized calculations for each MA type
|
||||
* Circular buffer for efficient SMA calculation
|
||||
* Alpha smoothing for EMA
|
||||
* Linear weighting for WMA
|
||||
* Proper handling of NA values
|
||||
* Input validation
|
||||
* Percentage-based band width calculation
