Do you mean that you want to use an EMA of the DMI?
This will do that: EMA(DMI(dmiPeriod), emaPeriod).
If you want to compare the DMI to its EMA, this will do it:
if (DMI(dmiPeriod)[0] > EMA(DMI(dmiPeriod), emaPeriod)[0]) etc.
You can see how it looks on a chart by setting up DMI and then an EMA of the DMI. When you select the Input Series for the EMA, don't use the default of FDAX, select DMI instead, and make sure to put them on the same panel, like this:
Here's how it looks. Notice it's a little choppy during non-trending periods:
Hope this is what you're looking for, or something like it. Or that at least it gives you an idea you can use.
I thought this was a bogus idea but apparently it has been done. From the description of the title I thought it was some kind of amalgamation of DMI and EMA of whatever time period.... but upon looking at the references below it seems to be observations of the separate entities...and how they behave.... Similar to what I do with my charts using Slow Sto/MACD/BBwidth in the same chart
Here are some internet references.... I am just handing these out without any comment on whether this is useful or not
Nope, the Thread Starter just wanted to plot an EMA of the DMI. Not an MA of the price, just an MA for DMI itself on the DMI panel, and then take action when the DMI crosses its own EMA.
