🏵MOVING AVERAGE TYPES🏵
🏆What Is A Moving Average:
A moving average is one of the lagging technical indicators which the traders and investors use for determining the trend’s direction. It totals the data points of the chart and then divides the total by the number of data points over a specific time period for arriving at an average. It is referred to as the “moving” average as it is continually recalculated which is based on the latest price data. The moving average is used by the trader for determining support and resistance by evaluating the price movements. This indicator shows the previous price movement of the asset which the traders use to determine the potential direction of the future price move.
🏆Simple Moving Average:
The SMA Is the simplest moving average that is obtained by adding the most recent data points set and then dividing the total by the number of time periods. The SMA indicator is used by traders to generate signals of when to enter or exit the trade. An SMA is a lagging indicator as it is based on the past price data for a given period that can be computed for different types of prices such as high, low, open, and close. Traders use this indicator for determining buy, sell signals. It also helps to identify support and resistance zones.
🏆 Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
EMA is the other type of moving average that gives more weight to the most recent price points and makes it more responsive to recent volatility. EMA is more responsive to recent price change when compared to the SMA as it applies the same weight to all price changes in the given specific period.
🏆Most Common MA’s:
• 20ema - Best for shorter time frames and volatile price movement
• 50ema - Good for overall trend insight and outlook
• 200ema - Best for longer time frames and larger trends
🏆KEY TAKEAWAY:
While one might prefer one or the other type of MA, traders can use both to gain the trading edge. The key is to know how to use the indicator properly. I can say for myself that I use both sometimes, especially when going through my stocks watchlist and these indicators have proven to be effective despite being relatively simple.
