Triple Exponential Moving Average

The Triple Exponential Moving Average is a moving averages indicator used in Skyrexio Strategy Builder for trend following and dynamic support/resistance.

Introduction

The Triple Exponential Moving Average is a moving averages indicator used in Skyrexio Strategy Builder for trend following and dynamic support/resistance. A triple smoothed exponential moving average that reduces lag even further than DEMA. Highly responsive to price changes while filtering out market noise.

How Triple Exponential Moving Average Works

The Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) extends the DEMA concept by applying triple smoothing. Calculation: TEMA = 3×EMA(n) - 3×EMA(EMA(n)) + EMA(EMA(EMA(n))). This creates an even more responsive moving average with minimal lag.

In crypto strategy building, TEMA is used for:

Ultra-responsive trend detection - Identifies trend changes faster than DEMA • Short-term trading - Ideal for day trading and scalping • Momentum strategies - Quick response to price acceleration • Noise filtering - Despite responsiveness, it filters out minor fluctuations

TEMA is best suited for active trading strategies where quick entries and exits are crucial. It excels in trending markets but may generate false signals in ranging conditions.
