Triple Exponential Average

Triple Exponential Average (TRIX) is an oscillator developed by Jack Hutson. It helps identify overbought or oversold market conditions and can also be used as a Momentum indicator. TRIX uses triple smoothing to remove cyclic components in price movements.

TRIX uses the zero line as a signal for buying or selling. To buy, the indicator should cross the zero line from below or show bulls’ divergence. To sell, the indicator should cross the zero line from above or show bears’ divergence with prices.

TRIX stands out for its ability to effectively filter out price noises and its lack of lag, which is common in most moving averages.
