fynance.features.momentums.sma(X, w=None, axis=0, dtype=None)

Compute simple moving average(s) of size w for each X’ series.

\[sma^w_t(X) = \frac{1}{w} \sum^{w-1}_{i=0} X_{t-i}\]
Parameters:
X : np.ndarray[dtype, ndim=1 or 2]

Elements to compute the moving average.

w : int, optional

Size of the lagged window of the moving average, must be positive. If w is None or w=0, then w=X.shape[axis]. Default is None.

axis : {0, 1}, optional

Axis along wich the computation is done. Default is 0.

dtype : np.dtype, optional

The type of the output array. If dtype is not given, infer the data type from X input.

Returns:
np.ndarray[dtype, ndim=1 or 2]

Simple moving average of each series.
