I question the well known alpha=2/(n+1) for a one pole EMA, as the assumption is that prices rise at one unit per bar.
Since when do prices do this?
I defer to the formula on page 161 of Rocket for determining cutoff, which is all that matters - not trying to compare with SMA, however noble that may appear to someone maybe not as pedantic as myself. As it turns out roughly OK within loose bounds - if near enough is good enough.
I have seen slightly different formulations of alpha somewhere which may go someway to correcting this, but I have forgotten.
An example.
One pole EMA cutoff = 12, say. Alpha is about 0.4.
Now, 2/(4+1) = 0.4. Cutoff of 4 bar SMA is about 8. Is 8 close to 12? Yes and no. But at these high "frequencies" I think it does matter a lot.
End rant!

Agat, sorry for the late answer, do you mean a color version of the fisher transform line(sorry if it seems like a dumb question, just want to be sure)?
Guess this would be a combination of Ehlers and Williams, this is an ift of adaptive super smoother wpr with mtf.

Nice. Thanks

Yes, exactly.The signal line is not needed.
Also, I noticed that this indicator gives an error "Incorreсt start position for ArrayMaximum(Minimum) function".

That is a benign error (happens only on a first run or when time frame or symbol is changed, and does not affect the result. Anyway, here is a version without that message : ehlers_fisher_transform.mq4
