Detailed FACTS doesn’t really matter.
Semantics, Point of View, and Perspective is all that matter.
I’m gone too – to reflect on other “perspectives”…
Good luck and Green Pips.

In real-life, I stay away from any kind of MA. It was just an example to show that your categoric statement is mathematically wrong.

Guys,
I think this discussion is heating up mostly due to the lack of detailed facts in many arguments.
I’ve got some coding and more to do, so please don’t mind if I’m quitting here for a while.

1. Volume is NOT price. In Forex, Volume is market activity – the number of transactions that causes a price to move.
2. Perspective and point of view can differ. Facts can’t.
3. Indicator can “Indicate” coming event – or just follow price-action in a lagging manner, which make it useless. For that purpose you should use chart candles…[Read more]

MA(3) uses only the last 3 values. That’s why it’s called “Moving Average”…

Halo brother Kiads,
I am afraid that EU still will go to the south to reach 1.0992x , or even 1.0912x … before she goes to north again

But, I hope it will not go there (because i have buy orders …
). Any idea ?Thanks

It’s NOT semantics.
What’s the point in creating new indicator if you are just chasing price-action?
What’s the point of using just RSI (another Price-Action, and VERY lagging. BTW:CCI is better and faster for that purpose) to model Currency-Strength?
If you are into 30-40% of long-term trend, you don’t need all those fancy…[Read more]

Oh, really?
Price(t1) = 6, Price(t2)=7 —> Diff=1.
MA(t1)={4,5,6), MA(t2)={4,5,6,7) —> MA(t1,3)=5, MA(t2,3)=6 —> Diff=1
So, in the above private case, MA’s Diff is equal to actual price Diff. and that’s just simple SMA. So your statement isn’t ALWAYS right…

Great! Any specific post, or just generally since we met here?

Two instances of CIX used simultaneously as a practical answer?
Top: short term, very reactive, RSI normalization (this is for entry timing by anticipating swing reversal)
Bottom: medium term, timeframe normalization (this is for selection of which pairs to trade)
Combined SELL entries are at the orange lines.

I’m afraid you’re right!
It’s a question of the individual strategy preferred: fishing for exact swing reversals under controlled conditions or ‘good old’ waiting for confirmation. Like one of the ‘great’ traders said: I’m satisfied to cut the middle 30 or 40 % of a swing and let the others fight for the rest. I don’t remember who it was, but I…[Read more]

Oh, I thought you know me by now… What about some kind of Volume-Weighted MA? You already recognize the power of VZO, Tick-Volume, etc.

No, it’s not. If you read and use Gadi_Currencies @FF, those are the exact examples that are given years ago.
The rule I gave is valid and accurate, and simplex proved it in one of his latest post.
The same logic that trade strong currency against weaker one can be applied to falling strong currency against rising weaker currency.

Not confused! I just think you found a stable and well-balanced set of parameters for your system to work at optimum performance.
