• This value determines the smoothing factor of the JMA. A higher period results in a smoother line that reacts less to short-term price fluctuations. Conversely, a lower period creates a more responsive line that reacts quickly to changes in price.
• Imagine the period as the number of data points the JMA considers when calculating the average. A higher period considers more data and smooths out more noise, while a lower period focuses on a smaller window and reacts faster to recent trends.
• Common period values for JMA range from 13 to 21 for short-term analysis, and 50 to 200 for long-term analysis. Ultimately, the optimal period depends on your trading strategy and the specific market you're analyzing.

Phase:

• This input influences the overshoot and undershoot behavior of the JMA. It acts like a momentum adjustment, allowing the JMA to lead price slightly.
• A positive phase value makes the JMA more likely to overshoot price peaks and troughs, while a negative phase value encourages it to undershoot. A neutral phase (around 0) results in the JMA following price more closely.
• The phase can be used to fine-tune your trading signals. For example, you might prefer a slightly positive phase to catch early breakouts, or a slightly negative phase to avoid false signals from temporary price spikes.
