The Centipede Moving Average Indicator — Riding the Trend.

Creating the Centipede Moving Average Indicator in Python.

Moving averages have their benefits but also their limitations, with each type suffering from a specific bias be it lag or hyper responsiveness. There is generally not a solution to improve each type of moving average, but we can create a sort of scanner that send a signal when they are all giving the same bias. We will call this scanner, the Centipede.
