Multi-Volatility Adjusted Moving Average

🎯 Core Concept
The Multi-Volatility Adjusted Moving Average (MVAMA) is an advanced technical indicator that creates an adaptive moving average with a built-in upward bias. Unlike traditional moving averages that simply follow price, this indicator adjusts upward based on market volatility, making it particularly useful for identifying dynamic resistance levels and trend strength.

🔧 How It Works
Key Principle: Upward Volatility Bias
Base Calculation: Starts with your chosen moving average (EMA, SMA, etc.)
Volatility Measurement: Calculates market volatility using one of 5 different methods
Upward Adjustment: Always adds volatility adjustment upward: Adaptive MA = Base MA + Volatility Adjustment
Dynamic Resistance: Creates a moving resistance level that adapts to market conditions

📊 5 Volatility Calculation Methods
1. Simple (High-Low Range)
Method: (High - Low) / Close × 100
Best For: Clean, straightforward volatility measurement
Use Case: General purpose, all market conditions
2. Parkinson (Range-Based Log Volatility)
Method: √(ln(High/Low)²) with safety bounds
Best For: Intraday volatility without using open/close gaps
Use Case: Choppy markets, day trading
3. ATR (Average True Range)
Method: Traditional ATR as percentage of price
Best For: Handling gaps and limit moves
Use Case: Swing trading, gap-prone markets
4. Standard Deviation (Statistical)
Method: Standard deviation of price returns
Best For: Academic/statistical approach
Use Case: Backtesting, quantitative analysis
5. Garman-Klass (OHLC Optimized)
Method: 0.5×ln(H/L)² - (2ln2-1)×ln(C/O)²
Best For: Most comprehensive volatility using all OHLC data
Use Case: Professional trading, maximum accuracy

🎛️ 12 Moving Average Types
Fast & Responsive:
HMA (Hull): Minimal lag, very responsive
DEMA/TEMA: Double/Triple exponential for speed
WMA: Weighted for recent price emphasis
Balanced:
EMA: Classic exponential (default)
ALMA: Arnaud Legoux for balanced response
LSMA: Linear regression trend following
Smooth & Stable:
SMA: Simple moving average
SMMA/RMA: Smoothed for noise reduction
TRIMA: Triangular for maximum smoothness
VWMA: Volume-weighted for market participation

💡 Practical Applications
Trading Uses:
Dynamic Resistance: Acts as adaptive resistance level
Trend Strength: Higher volatility = stronger adjustment = more significant level
Entry Timing: Price touching the adaptive MA can signal rejection points
Risk Management: Volatility bands show market uncertainty
Market Analysis:
Low Volatility: Adaptive MA stays close to base MA (consolidation)
High Volatility: Adaptive MA moves significantly above base MA (trending/breakout)
Trend Confirmation: Sustained distance between price and adaptive MA shows trend strength
