All Implemented Interfaces:

Resettable, RTIndicator

public class McGinleyDynamicRTIndicator
extends AbstractRTIndicator

McGinley Dynamic with O(1) per-tick computation.

Self-adjusting moving average that adapts to market speed:

  MD = MD_prev + (close - MD_prev) / (N * (close / MD_prev)^4)

Accelerates in trending markets (close far from MD) and decelerates in ranging markets (close near MD). Reduces whipsaws compared to EMA/SMA.

Method Details

getPeriods

public int getPeriods()

isReady

public boolean isReady()

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
