I found jurik formula for Amibroker but I dunno how to translate this formula into MS. Hopefully someone in this forum is willing to share a bit of his or her knowledge in coding

function JMA( array, per )
{
TN1=MA(array,per);
s1=0;
for( i = 0; i < per; i=i+1 )
{
s1=s1+((per-(2*i)-1)/2)*Ref(array,-i);
}
return TN1+(((per/2)+1)*S1)/((per+1)*per);
}
k=Param("Period",15,1,100,1);
J=JMA(C,k);

Conceptually, this code is similar to the Zero Lag moving average which IS simple enough for MS-FL and available at several sites.

I don't think the AB JMA code can be done in MS-FL because of the lack of looping.

The TN1 array is easy enough - just a simple moving average of the closing price over 'per' bars.

s1 is a variable whose value is determined by looping over the 'per' number of periods. you would need to create a .dll with some external language like 'C' or whatever to compute s1.

the s1 value is then added to the TN1 moving average to create the Jurik moving average in the 'return' line.

The 'function' is present so that it can be repeatedly called from different spots in a larger routine, passing what ever 'array' and 'per' that is required.

Finally, the 'param' statement allows you to adjust the number of 'per's after the chart is displayed.

PS
From comments I've read about this AB code, it is not EXACTLY the Jurik moving average, just an approximation.

The code is simply a combination of a simple moving average and one way of approximating overall slope:

Result = SMA + slope

You can get the desired slope calc in MS by using the built-in linear regression slope function. This way, ...

Result = mov( data array, periods, simple )
+
linregslope( data array, periods ) * scaling_factor

You set the scaling factor as in input parameter, which allows you to adjust the amount of lag reduction. This approach to achieving low lag smoothing is NOT adaptive and has a significant overshoot penalty in proportion to the amount of lag reduction you request.

This formula poorly approximates JMA, which is adaptive, non-linear and has better lag/overshoot tradeoff properties. If you want the real thing, go to http://www.jurikres.com .

Mark, I have also found that adding variable smoothing does help things - sometimes considerably. Even MS has a volatility based adjustable moving average with the VAR switch in the 'mov' function. But, as I'm sure you know, there are many ways to do the adjustments.

PS
The formula MS gives for VAR in the user guide(p473) is wrong (as of Ver9) better go to the source in TASC.

Or JMO for just my opinion.

Seriously, I tried the code and enjoyed the plot it gave. Thanks to you and Mark for the help with it. Kinda suprised that no one has jumped on making it adaptive though.

Hmmm... adaptive to what?

Actually, by default the PMA's "Lag reduction scaling factor" is adaptive to the MA's periodicity.

My thoughts exactly! As of this point I haven't tried anything but was thinking of using some type of momentum oscillator.
