FlexMA – Time-based moving average

FlexMA plots a moving average based on real-world time (like “5 days”) instead of fixed bar lengths.
Choose the MA type (SMA, EMA, etc.), enter a timespan and unit, and the script automatically adjusts across any chart timeframe.

This was created out of a demand for moving average indicator that was easy to configure across any time frame but the results end up consistent. For example, a 5 Day SMA where it looks the same at every interval.

Powered by:

• Electrified/Time – Converts spans to lengths
  
• Electrified/MovingAverages – Provides modular MA logic
  

Example: Want a 3-day EMA? Just set:

1. Plot: EMA
   
2. Timespan: 3
   
3. Unit: Days
   

Clean, adaptive, and great for multi-timeframe setups.

UPDATED DESCRIPTION

FlexMA – Time-based Moving Average with Adaptive Length

FlexMA is a flexible moving average that allows traders to define the average using a specific duration of time (e.g., “3 Days” or “2.5 Hours”) rather than an arbitrary number of bars. This means the moving average length adjusts automatically depending on the chart’s timeframe.

Example: A 3-day EMA will always cover 3 days — whether you're on a 15-minute chart or a 2-hour chart.

What this script does:

• Lets you select from multiple MA types (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, CMA, VAWMA)
  
• Accepts timespans like 1.5 hours, 2 days, etc.
  
• Automatically calculates the correct length across timeframes
  
• Plots the resulting moving average on the chart
  
• Includes optional alert conditions for crossovers and direction changes
  

How it works:

• Uses Electrified/Time library to convert a time span (like 3 days) into a length based on the current chart’s timeframe
  
• Uses Electrified/MovingAverages library to apply the selected moving average type to your chosen source
  
• Automatically adapts to any chart — 1 minute, 1 hour, daily, etc.
  

How to use it:

1. Choose your moving average type (e.g., EMA)
   
2. Set the time span (e.g., 3)
   
3. Choose the unit (e.g., Days)
   
4. Done — the MA will auto-adjust across timeframes
   

Why FlexMA is original and valuable:

• Most MAs use a fixed number of bars, which vary in actual time across timeframes — FlexMA solves this with real-time duration input.
  
• Traders can express intent in hours or days, rather than guessing how many bars they need for consistency.
  
• Combines two custom libraries to deliver flexible MA logic and accurate span-to-length conversion.
  
• Especially helpful for multi-timeframe analysis where consistency matters.
