What is the TEMA API?

Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) applies three layers of EMA smoothing and subtracts the lag mathematically — resulting in a moving average that tracks price far more closely than EMA. It's particularly valuable for momentum-based bots that need early signals without the noise of raw price. Our API pre-calculates TEMA(20) on broker candle data so your strategy gets the value, not the computation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is TEMA different from EMA and DEMA?

EMA applies one pass of exponential smoothing. DEMA (Double EMA) applies two. TEMA applies three — each pass further reducing the lag inherent in EMA-based calculations. TEMA tracks price most closely of the three but is also more sensitive to noise on very short timeframes.

What period does TEMA use?

TEMA_20 uses a 20-period lookback, matching the popular 20-period EMA setting used in many trading systems. The same period applies to all three EMA passes in the TEMA formula.

Is TEMA available for crypto symbols?

Yes — TEMA_20 is available for all symbols active on connected broker terminals, including BTCUSD, ETHUSD, and other crypto pairs alongside Forex and commodities.

Can I compare TEMA with EMA in the same request?

Not in a single request — each indicator requires a separate call. However, EMA_20 and TEMA_20 are both available, so you can fetch both and compare them in your own code or pass both values to an AI agent for contextual analysis.
