Return value of the Triple Smoothed Exponential Moving Average (also known as TRIX) over the last N periods for the selected price.

Syntax:

Calculation :

First we calculate the triple (3 periods) exponential moving average of the prices. After that, we calculate the percentage of variation of this data to obtain the TRIX indicator.

Interpretation :

It is often used with a 9 day moving average for smooting purposes.

When the TRIX rises above its moving average a buy signal is announced.

When the TRIX falls below its moving average it is a sell signal. The TRIX is very valuable when there is a clear trend.

The TRIX gives also good divergence signals.
