| The EMA smooths out short-term fluctuations. With a very small α (~0.000003209), the EMA changes slowly—99.9997% comes from the previous EMA value and only 0.0003% from the current block's flow. This creates a 30-day half-life, meaning it takes about 30 days for the EMA to move halfway toward a new sustained flow level. | ||
| This results in an EMA window (duration over which old values still affect the running EMA) of approximately ~86.8 days. |

EMA window (duration over which old values still affect the running EMA)
There is nothing like a lookback-window for an EMA, the EMAs are looking back infinitely into the past and will always be influenced by all past EMAs.
