DEMA Distance 20 (M1)Trend

Timeframe M1 · unit %

What it measures

How far price sits from the Double Exponential Moving Average - a version that doubles the EMA and subtracts a second-pass EMA to reduce the natural lag of a single EMA.

How Janira reads it (bullish vs bearish)

DEMA reacts noticeably faster than a plain EMA of the same length, so gaps appear and disappear more quickly. A gap beyond ±0.2 % on M1 is already meaningful.

In plain language

The DEMA is like a single EMA that has been taught to anticipate price rather than just follow it. This number measures how far price has strayed from that quicker-reacting anchor.

Scenarios

Near 0 %: price is effectively at its double-smoothed anchor - no strong short-term momentum signal.
Sustained positive gap: price has been consistently ahead of even this faster average, pointing to genuine upward momentum on M1.
Sudden negative spike: price dropped fast enough to outrun even the DEMA's acceleration - a sharp intraday move is in progress.
Oscillating around zero with small amplitude: the market is in low-directional noise mode on this timeframe.
