MA Technical Analysis and MA Trading Signals

A trading indicator that calculates the average value of market prices ( or any specified info sequence ) over a pre-determined period of time.

The only significant difference between the various types of MAs is weight assigned to most recent data. Simple Moving Averages apply equal weight to the prices. Exponential & weighted averages apply more weight to recent prices.

Explanation

The most popular strategy of interpreting the MA indicator is to compare the relationship between the MA of the market price with the price itself. A buy signal gets generated when price rises above its MA and a sell trade signal gets generated when price drops below its Moving Average.
