A moving average calculated by weighting recent values more heavily than older values.
An exponential (or exponentially weighted) moving average is calculated by applying a percentage of the current period's closing price to the previous period's moving average value. The resulting average is front loaded i.e. places greater weight on more recent data. Fade Selling a rising price or buying a falling price. For example, a trader fading an up opening would be short. Failure Swings An interpretive technique used with Welles Wilder's the RSI.
a moving average smooths the fluctuations in stock prices by averaging the prices over a specified period. An exponential moving average gives heavier weight to the most recent data.
The EMA for day D is calculated as: where PR is the price on day D and a (alpha) is a smoothing constant. Alpha may be estimated as 2/(n+1), where n is the simple moving average length.
A moving average with variable weights, more prominence being given to the later terms, and generally plotted at the last time point. Each term may be calculated by taking the last value by a constant plus the previous moving average times (1 - the same constant).
A moving average where the previous average is multiplied by (N-1) days, and then today's data is added, with the result divided again. Due to the continuous smoothing, exponential moving averages retain some portion of the price action outside the period of the exponential moving average. Simple moving averages, on the other hand, don't because any move beyond the length of the average is dropped before the average is calculated.
(EMA) — The average price of a security or currency over a specified time period used to spot pricing trends by smoothing out the large fluctuations. The exponential variety assigns more value or weight to the most recent data.

See on: Wikipedia Investopedia A type of moving average that is similar to a simple moving average, except that more weight is given to the latest data. Also known as "exponentially weighted moving average".
A moving average that gives greater weight to more recent data in an attempt to smoothen the moving average.
Similar to a simple moving average (SMA), except that more weight is given to the latest data. Also known as an exponentially weighted moving average, this type of moving average reacts more quickly to recent price changes than a Simple Moving Average. Our Exponential Moving Averages start with a simple moving average of the number of days in the moving average, and then use the Exponential formula thereafter. An Exponential Moving Average is computed according to the following formula
A moving average calculated by exponentially weighted input.
