A 100 Ema and 150 Ema is for spotting the trends bt you could use the stochastics overbought and oversold with a combination of trendlines mixing the lows and higher highs and make a entry in trade for Intraday

I'm learning more than all the guru;s out there. I just need the basics. Thanks trading212. From Chicago IL USA

[@Trading212]

Thanks, Lori. Great to see you enjoy the videos. Stay tuned for more from Trading 212.

[@hedimaoui7052]

It's been proven that a such trading strategy will kill your account !!! We know it for many years, even decades….Maybe you can use Moving averages as dynamic supports/résistances and also have a look at their "angle" which will give you information about the market conditions. A flat Moving average is telling you that markets are ranging, and a very angled Moving average is telling you that markets are trending. So you can trade according to the appropriate trading strategy. Nevertheless, thanks for the video

[@TopJoo7]

Thanks for sharing your idea and we appreciate it. I prefer to use a shorter period for EMA such as 50 and below.

[@3DimensionalVEVO]

You explain everything really good and your hands explain alot also for words i don’t understand yet beqause i am from the netherlands. Big props to the guy explaining it.

[@lovernotfighter]

I just found your site. Very good instruction, Thanks.

[@Fazlifts]

Thank you. I would enjoy a video on reliable reversal indicators (candles, patterns etc).

[@Trading212]

Hello there, you may browse the videos in this playlist - kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6e5qouDbMmVhKM. Your comment is noted.

[@akhtarbutt66]

well-explained.

[@carlosweaver6763]

A video on trailing stop losses to use along these patterns would be educational and helpful.

[@Trading212]

Thanks for your comment, Carlos. You may want to watch this video on Trailing Stop orders as well - kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2XHeo2GndJjq9E.

[@babyucon]

20 and 50 EMA seems to work for me.

[@joejasnie9731]

this is suitable for long term trades. if you're going for short term or swing trades better use 2 ema

[@leoncampa]

I have had very mixed results with moving averages. After spread costs, I would say one tends to lose money overall, and I would not recommend it. The only time I find them useful is when a major breaking news happens in favor of a trend reversal. If you see the trend begin what appears to be a reversal (without actually crossing), and then a major news release comes out to help the reversal in the direction of the cross, one can probably take a risk and go for it early. Unfortunately, those news releases don't happen quickly enough to generate considerable profit over the long run.

[@yunus148]

Hi, I appreciate your videos, thanks for this. Please make a vid for combining of moving average-21 with trend and CCI-55. I am trying to get used to trade with this combination and appreciate it really to experience what you experts say to this combination. Thanks in advance!

[@petermartin9072]

Hi Yilmaz. Glad you're enjoying the videos. Your request is noted and a video on a moving average/commodity channel index combo is a possibility. I will look into it, but I'm afraid no promises at the moment.

[@traplikemax]

it seems like this indicator is not that good to use

[@paras1806]

Hey Peter!! very useful video, Thanks!! Could you please make a video on Trading using VWAP

[@Trading212]

Thanks for your suggestion, Paras.

[@user-nj1tf7te5r]

Good video content. Is there any chance you can make some videos on intra-day trading please?

[@Brad-xr7gp]

If you are using 3 moving averages would you not use the alligator indicator, please help?

[@wealthtelevision6970]

@trading212 this method doest work due to the market whipping around can this be better resolved by complimenting this Indicator with a trend or volatility Indicator to identify when a trend is about to be formed or when volatility in the market goes up making it up stable

[@gogonyx]

how bout using trailing stop?

[@paulkaz1752]

That's a good point. Probably best with this trend following method.

Serious question for someone at 212 trading. In the event of a nations currency collapsing and becoming near worthless like the Zimbabwe dollar or Venezuelan bolivar at what point would you suspend/stop trading the Instrument? Could someone risk losing profit if it's excessive due to a conflict of interest? I'm thinking about a potential position trade and short position on usd/zar if the ANC win the 2019 election in South Africa

[@Trading212]

Rest assured, Trading 212's experienced and professional risk management team is monitoring the trading activity non-stop to always ensure flawless trading experience to all traders. There are plenty of risk management tools available, other than instruments' suspension.

[@remixstudio7104]

The other guy David Jones would explain it better I prefer it if he was teaching the method in the video

[@paulkaz1752]

Nice video, thanks. How do you determine where to place your setup loss when entering the trade?

Which leading indicator works best with moving averages

[@drewgibson4233]

MACD and RSI are usually the most used along with the SMA and EMA indicators.
