Class EnvelopesRTIndicator

java.lang.Object

All Implemented Interfaces:
Resettable, RTIndicator

public class EnvelopesRTIndicator extends AbstractRTIndicator
Envelopes (Moving Average Envelopes) with O(1) per-tick computation.

Fixed-percentage bands above and below an EMA:

  Middle = EMA(close, periods)
  Upper  = Middle * (1 + percentage / 100)
  Lower  = Middle * (1 - percentage / 100)

Simpler than Bollinger Bands (no volatility adjustment). Useful for identifying overbought/oversold conditions relative to the trend.

AbstractRTIndicator.getValue() returns the middle line (EMA).

      Description copied from interface: RTIndicator
      Returns whether this indicator has received enough data to produce meaningful values.

      During the warmup period, RTIndicator.getValue() may return 0 or a partial estimate that should not be used for trading decisions. Once this method returns true, the indicator's output is statistically valid.

      The default implementation returns true for backward compatibility. Indicators with warmup requirements should override this method.

      For composite indicators (e.g. Bollinger Bands, MACD), readiness is determined by the slowest internal component.

      Returns:
      true if the indicator has completed its warmup period
