Hello,

Are there any indicators out there that would mimic TMA bands without the repainting? I have a strategy that was really solid scrolling back to the left using TMA bands and several other indicators, however, when I jumped into market replay to work on taking the trades it in real time, I quickly found out that the TMA bands shift/re-paint constantly. My strategy relies on price action going above/below the TMA bands (amongst other things)...so in real time I see price action close a candle above/below the bands, but then 10-15 bars later, the bands repaint/shift and price action will be in the middle of the bands.

So essentially at the end of the trading session, the TMA's are PERFECT for my strategy, but in real-time, they suck!

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Harry's LizardIndicators (dot) com ... ama Linear Regression Bands are similar to what a non-repainting TMA would produce.

I created a version which does not repaint. This is a modified version of the TmaBands created by another member. Once installed, you'll find it in a folder named "infinity" where the original indicator has been renamed TmaBandsNoRepaint.
