📘 Crypto Indicators #55 — Hull Moving Average (HMA): The Smooth & Fast Trend Detector
Tired of slow and laggy moving averages?
Meet the Hull Moving Average — a weapon of precision for trend traders.
🚀 If you want smoother trends and faster signals without noise… this is your edge.
🔍 What is the Hull Moving Average?
The HMA is a special type of moving average that reduces lag while keeping signals smooth.
Invented by Alan Hull, it improves on simple and exponential MAs by giving quicker entries and exits.
✅ It tracks price changes faster than EMA
✅ It removes noise better than SMA
✅ It’s a favorite of short-term traders and scalpers
🧠 How Does It Work?
The HMA formula modifies the Weighted Moving Average (WMA) to:
React faster to market shifts
Avoid fakeouts from choppy price action
Stay visually clean and simple
You’ll often see price bounce off the HMA in trending markets — it acts as both trend confirmation and support/resistance.
🧪 How to Use HMA in Trading?
💡 Spot the trend:
If HMA is rising and price stays above → Uptrend
If HMA is falling and price stays below → Downtrend
💡 Enter on bounces:
When price dips to a rising HMA and bounces → Buy Signal
When price rallies to a falling HMA and rejects → Sell Signal
💡 Cross with shorter HMA:
Use 9-HMA crossing above 21-HMA for momentum shifts
⚙️ How to Add HMA on Binance?
