10 min readThe Triangular Moving Average (TMA) is a technical analysis indicator used in financial markets to smooth out price fluctuations and identify trends. It is a variation of the simple moving average (SMA) and provides a more accurate representation of the average price over a specific period.Unlike the SMA, which gives equal weight to all data points in the calculation, the TMA assigns more weight to the recent data points and less weight to the older ones.

7 min readIn Groovy, an immutable class, by definition, means that the state of the object cannot be modified after its creation. However, Groovy introduces some flexibility with regards to immutability.By default, Groovy classes are mutable, which means that the properties of an object can be changed. This is in contrast to languages like Java, where immutability is enforced by default. Groovy allows modifications to properties even in classes that are declared as "immutable".

9 min readTo print a PDF on the client side from a Groovy web application, you can follow these steps:Retrieve the PDF file: Make sure you have a PDF file that you want to print. This file can be stored on the server-side or generated dynamically by your Groovy web application. Prepare the print functionality: In your Groovy web application, create a button or link that triggers the print functionality. This can be achieved by adding an onclick event to the button/link.

10 min readThe Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a mathematical calculation used in technical analysis to smooth out price data points and provide a moving average of an asset's price over a specified period of time. It is similar to simple moving averages (SMA), but it places more weight on recent price data and reacts faster to recent price changes.EMA is calculated by applying a calculation formula that involves using the current price, the previous EMA value, and a smoothing factor.

6 min readIn Groovy, to remove a temporary folder on exit, you can make use of the java.nio.file package. Here's how you can achieve it:First, define the temporary folder path that you want to remove. For example, let's say the path is stored in a variable named tempFolderPath. Next, use the Runtime.addShutdownHook() method to add a shutdown hook. This hook will be executed when the JVM is shutting down. Inside the shutdown hook, use the java.nio.file.

5 min readRate of Change (ROC) is a concept used in mathematics and finance to measure the speed at which a variable is changing over a specific period of time. It is commonly expressed as a ratio or percentage, showing the relative change in a quantity with respect to time. ROC is widely used in various fields, including physics, economics, engineering, and more.To calculate ROC, you need two distinct data points over a given timeframe.

5 min readThe ".*" operator in Groovy is used to invoke the method on each element of a collection or array. It is often referred to as the "spread dot operator" or the "method spread operator."When used with a collection or array, the ".*" operator allows you to call a method on every element of that collection or array, without needing to explicitly iterate over each element.
