Triple Exponential Moving Average, TEMA Analysis - How to Use TEMA Example Explained

This indicator tracks the price trend: its original intent was to minimize the inherent delay found in the standard exponential moving average.

The calculation is based on 3 EMAs:

  • a single EMA
  • a double EMA and
  • a triple EMA

The combination of the three EMAs results in a reduced lag compared to any individual EMA.

Technical Analysis and How to Generate Trading Signals

The TEMA technical oscillator can be utilized for trading in a manner identical to the standard moving averages.

The top way to generate signals is by comparing the moving average line to XAUUSD price action.

  • A sell signal is generated/derived when price and the technical indicator are both moving downward.
