Mesa Adaptive Moving Averages was created by John Ehler
Originally used to trade commodities & stocks.

Ehler MESA Adaptive Moving Average(MA)
The MESA Adaptive Moving Average is a market trend following indicator that adapts to price action movement based on the rate of change of price as rated by Hilbert Transform Discriminator. This technical indicator will generate a signal when the 2 MAs cross one another. Trade Positions should be executed on direction of the MESA averages.
This approach utilizes a fast Moving Average alongside a slow MA, allowing the resulting composite average to rapidly mirror price shifts while maintaining its computed value until the next candle closes. This indicator tends to generate fewer false reversal alerts when contrasted with traditional Moving Averages, owing to the specific mathematical formula employed to gauge the rate of change relative to price movement.
