# IIndicatorsAccessor.FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage

Member of [IIndicatorsAccessor](https://help.ctrader.com/ctrader-algo/references/Indicators/IIndicatorsAccessor/index.md).

## FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(int periods)

The Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA) indicator is a type of moving average that adjusts its sensitivity to price movements based on market volatility

Environments: Desktop supported · CLI supported · Cloud supported.

C#:

```csharp
FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(int periods)
```

Python:

```python
api.Indicators.FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(periods: int) -> FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage
```

### Parameters

- `periods` (`int`, Python `int`): The periods used for the calculation. Must be an even number.

### Returns

`FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage` — The FRAMA indicator instance.

### Examples

C#:

```csharp
var frama = Indicators.FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(16);
Print("FRAMA(16): {0}", frama.Result.LastValue);
```

Python:

```python
frama = api.Indicators.FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(16)
api.Print(f"FRAMA(16): {frama.Result.LastValue}")
```

## FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(Bars bars, int periods)

The Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA) indicator is a type of moving average that adjusts its sensitivity to price movements based on market volatility

Environments: Desktop supported · CLI supported · Cloud supported.

C#:

```csharp
FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(Bars bars, int periods)
```

Python:

```python
api.Indicators.FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(bars: Bars, periods: int) -> FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage
```

### Parameters

- `bars` (`Bars`, Python `Bars`): The Bars that will be used by indicator, you can pass another timeframe/symbol bars
- `periods` (`int`, Python `int`): The periods used for the calculation. Must be an even number.

### Returns

`FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage` — The FRAMA indicator instance.

### Examples

C#:

```csharp
var dailyBars = MarketData.GetBars(TimeFrame.Daily);
var dailyFrama = Indicators.FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(dailyBars, 16);
Print("Daily FRAMA(16): {0}", dailyFrama.Result.LastValue);
```

Python:

```python
dailyBars = api.MarketData.GetBars(TimeFrame.Daily)
dailyFrama = api.Indicators.FractalAdaptiveMovingAverage(dailyBars, 16)
api.Print(f"Daily FRAMA(16): {dailyFrama.Result.LastValue}")
```
