WEMA
Wilder-style EMA used inside ATR and ADX. Smooths price with a slower response than EMA.
About
Wilder's Exponential Moving Average (WEMA) is the smoothing used inside ATR and ADX. Its constant is slower than a standard EMA of the same period, so the line turns later.
Use WEMA when you want the same smoothing those Wilder indicators use, or when an EMA of that period feels too quick. Bias is still price versus a rising or falling average.
In a mix, WEMA works as a conservative trend filter. Pair it with a faster timing signal so the slower line is context, not the only trigger.
