Here's the link for it (pdf is attached) ... https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/257b/837649d8b50662b3fe2c21fce825a1... His purpose for bringing it to my attention was in relation to some TradeTight routines (MTV, CVW, etc) whose algorithms are closely tied to slope and stack "voting", using a family of moving averages. I've typically used Wma, occasionally Sma, and fairly often a "bounded" Ema (see info in link below re bounding) ... presumably this was a suggestion that I consider using alternative MA calc-types to improve performance. Click Here for my evaluation of how this can be implemented in OLang, and a bunch of snapshots of comparisons on OT's charts, and OLang code you can use to duplicate it.
