Candlestick Charts Basics - Moving Average

  • If the price is above its Moving Average, then it is seen as being strong. It may be worth researching the market further with a view to buying it
  • If the price is below its Moving Average, then it is seen as being weak. It may be worth researching the market further with a view to selling it
  • With short term Moving Averages you will get a lot of short term signals
  • With long term Moving Averages, your signal will lag

Pros and Cons
  • Past performance does not guarantee future results
  • Some traders will also want some leeway when using moving averages. Just because a market has moved above or below its MA it does not guarantee a particular result. If judging a chart on a long-term moving average a trader may wait a few days before making their decision
  • Naturally MAs have their limits but they can be a useful place to start your research
  • Using technical elements such as charts can help take the emotion out of trading
  • MA can help to show you when you are betting against the trend. Which you may or may not want to do.
