The WMA or Weighted Moving Average is one of the family members of moving averages. which weighs more on the most recent price data. suppose, you want to calculate the WMA ( Weighted Moving Average ) for the last 4 days.

The sum of days is: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10

The weight for the four quarters is:

 

Quarter        Fraction         Weight

 

 Current               1/10                    0.1

 Current               2/10                   0.2

 Current               3/10                   0.3

 Current               4/10                   0.4

 

Here, 4 is today’s price and you can calculate the weighted values by multiplying today’s price with 4 / 10 and yesterday’s 3 / 10, and so on.
