Package Exports

exponential-moving-average

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (exponential-moving-average) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Calculate an exponential moving average from an array of numbers.

Usage

var ema = require('exponential-moving-average');

var arr = [
  '22.27', 
  '22.19', 
  '22.08', 
  '22.17', 
  '22.18', 
  '22.13', 
  '22.23', 
  '22.43', 
  '22.24', 
  '22.29',

  '23.33', 
  '22.68', 
  '23.10', 
  '22.40', 
  '22.17'
];

// calculate ema over 10 days
console.log(ema(arr, 10));

Results in:

[
  '22.22',
  '22.21',
  '22.24',
  '22.27',
  '22.33',
  '22.52',
  '22.80',

  '23.39',
  '23.26',
  '23.23',
  '23.08',
  '22.92'
]

Options

Options may be passed as an object or as a number to specify only the range to use.

range

The number of array elements to use for the moving average. If no number is specified half of the length of the array is used.

Example

ema(arr, 10);
// or
ema(arr, {range: 10});

format

Format the numbers as they're added to the result.

ema(arr, {
  format: function(num) {
    return num.toFixed(3);
  }
});
