Functions

talib.sma()

Simple moving average of `source` over `length` bars: every bar in the window counts for the same. Reach for this one unless you want a particular weighting, in which case see `talib.ema`, `talib.wma` or `talib.vwma`.

Syntax

                talib.sma(series float source, series int length) → series float

Arguments

source required series float The series to average.

length required series int How many bars the average covers.

Return Type

series float

Example


          indicator("Simple Moving Average (SMA)", overlay=true)
length = input(20, "SMA Length")
smaValue = talib.sma(close, length)
plot(smaValue, color=color.blue, title="SMA")
