the 50 EMA is the best from what ive backtested.. but you must understand market structure when using dynamic S&R

[ConsciousCoder]

Great video! well said. No MA is perfect. Imperfection is perfection

[SchittsFrozn]

Good video. The simple way to explain it, moving averages are ONLY for when stocks (or currency pairs in this case) are TRENDING. If the pair is not in an uptrend or downtrend, meaning it’s consolidating (staying in a range) moving averages are void and useless. I like the 9ema and 20ema for entries and exits and the 200sma to establish trend.

BEST MA VIDEO EVER CREATED! THANK YOU!

[kangokidkidd]

I have to try the 100 to 209 trades just with the 50 below sell above buy...will let you know how it GOES THANKS for THIS..

[justtoowired]

I really enjoyed the video and this is me saying thank you ❤

[Malexius]

Super Video ! Grüße aus NRW ✌ Most of the Traders are afraid of cutting losses because of FOMO "It will turn again in my favor" also myself 🙁 Maybe you can make a video about this topic. With examples ?

[akashbhatt]

VERY GOOD VIDEO...I LEARN & LIKED VERY GIVE ONE GOOD CROSSOVER STRATEGY WITH ENTRY & EXIT ON DAILY TIME FRAME ON EMA/SMA IF POSSIBLE IN FUTURE.

[resultsdigitaltx]

great video...really like that one principle you mentioned several times!

[salehaminian]

Thanks. It was good with a honest view

[gafoorvmb]

Sir a video harmonic pattern dow theory to explain

[putainparker]

which moving averages time frames do you recommend for swing trading?

[gulryz]

Can I use different period EMA for 1D and 1H, does that work?

[heldim]

Very interesting approach changing the timeframe of one of the EMAs to act like a long term one! That seems to be more efficient than 200 EMA same time as the chart, in case we're looking at 5 minutes chart, for instance!
Could you enlighten me about the difference between Smoothed Moving Average and EMA/SMA?

[srinivasank]

Sir
Can we plot daily moving average line in the one hour time frame chart itself in trading view?

[loudoniii]

Good basic primer on the use of MA's.

[nikhilp]

Thanks a lot friend. I tried it but I get afraid of sideways movement and continuous whipsaws around the MA. Hence I fail in keeping consistency. What can be done? Thanks again.

[sarathesk]

Sir only one time frame and one ema constantly trade.... right or rank..
