I will complete my own study, but are there any rules about which MAs and EMAs to use? For example, if my time frame is two weeks (10 days), should I use MAs/EMAs of 5 and 15? Or maybe 5 and 10? This is just a general example. I don't have a definite time frame, but was wondering moreso if there were any rough guidelines. Thanks for your help.
You have to test different SMA/EMA strategies to see which one works best for you. Generally speaking, short term trading uses short term averages. Long term or position trade with longer averages (50 day SMA or greater).
If you're talking only a few a days, then use short term EMA. EMA is more sensitive to price changes.
