Ehlers MESA Adaptive Moving Average CFD Technical Analysis and Ehlers MESA CFD Signals

Mesa Adaptive Moving Averages was developed by John Ehlers

Originally used to trade commodities and stocks.

The MESA Adaptive average looks like two moving averages. The difference is that the MESA moves in a staircase manner and not in a curved line like the MA. The example shown below shows this indicator drawn on a cfd price chart.

The MESA Adaptive Moving Average is a cfd trend following indicator that adapts to cfds price action movement based on the rate of change of cfds price as measured by the Hilbert Transform Discriminator. This cfd indicator will generate a trade signal when the two MAs cross one another. Trades should be executed in direction of the MESA averages.

This method features a fast Moving Average and a slow Moving Average so that composite average rapidly follows behind the cfds price changes and holds the average value until the next candlestick close occurs. This cfd indicator is less prone to whipsaws compared with the original Moving averages. This is because of its formula used to calculate the rate of change in relation to the cfds price movement.
