What are Moving averages?
Moving averages are among the most widely used 移动平均线又分短期 and efficient indicators for technical analysis. Traders of all levels determine long term trends using this tool. We’ll cover how to define a trend, how to implement this 移动平均线又分短期 indicator for support and resistance levels, and how to use it as trade entry and exit signal.
What are Moving Averages?
Moving averages (MA) indicate the average trend within the chosen period, smooth out price action and filter out the noise. They are formed using the average closing price over a set number of periods. For example, a ten-day simple moving average is a total of the closing prices during a period of ten days divided by ten.
The most commonly used moving averages are:
Simple Moving Average (SMA), which indicates the 移动平均线又分短期 average movement of price during a particular time period;
Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which is similar to SMA, but applies a greater weight to more recent prices.
Adding Moving 移动平均线又分短期 Averages to your chart in MetaTrader 4
You can add moving averages to your chart simply by clicking the ‘indicators list’ icon in the toolbar and selecting ‘moving average’. From there you can choose the period and the type of MA you want to 移动平均线又分短期 work with. If you’re using multiple moving 移动平均线又分短期 averages you can change the color in order to identify them easily.
Simple Moving Averages vs. Exponential Moving Averages
SMA are slower than EMA in responding to price action. Consequently, they indicate trends or trend reversals more slowly, but are less prone to false signals. EMA are better at catching trends early, though they will give you more false signals during consolidation periods.
Using several types of moving averages will give you a broader outlook. For instance, a trader might choose longer period SMA to help understand the broader trend, and shorter period EMA for entry signals.
SMA may better identify support and resistance levels since they reflect a balanced average of prices over a set time period.
How to determine a trend using MA?
When a price action remains above a moving average, it signals that the price has an uptrend. Conversely, if a price action stays below the MA it indicates a downtrend.
Using several MA simultaneously can be beneficial in determining a trend. Make sure the MA lines are set in the correct order (from fastest to slowest in an uptrend, from slowest to fastest in a downtrend) to confirm that you are in a strong uptrend or downtrend.
Moving Average Crossovers
MA crossovers help to determine when a new trend starts and when an existing one is about to reverse.
Upward momentum is confirmed with a bullish crossover, when short-term MA crosse above longer-term MA. This can be called a ‘Golden Cross’. Downward momentum is confirmed with a bearish crossover, when short-term MA cross below longer-term MA, also known as a ‘Death Cross’. Short term MA can be used for intraday trading, for instance, EMA with 5 and 10 periods.
Longer-term traders might prefer SMA crossovers with 50 and 200 periods.
On one hand, MA crossovers tend to work well in trending markets, while on the other, they can be worthless in sideways or consolidating markets.
Moving Averages as Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels
MA can also be used as support in an uptrend and resistance in a downtrend. For example, a 移动平均线又分短期 short-term uptrend might find support near the 21-day EMA, while a long-term uptrend might find support near the 200-day SMA.
50 and 200-period SMA are mostly followed on the daily chart and often represent key support and resistance levels. Keep in mind that the levels are not exact, and MA more often represent areas of support and resistance. Levels are also dynamic, as they are constantly changing based on recent price action.
MA is a multi-faceted indicator that can help you to define a trend, support and resistance. It can also show when a new trend starts and when a trend is about to reverse. Set different periods of MA to determine what works best for your trading strategy.
同花顺-圈子
2、5日均线是强势股的生命线，股价收盘不破5日均线可一路持有，5日均线是攻击线。 3、短线操作重点关注5日均线：股价在5日均线之下运行，看空；股价在5日均线之上运行，看多。 4、一般以日线MA5分析短期走势，当股价向上突破了5日均线后，它具有支撑线的作用；当股价向下突破了5日均线后，它具有压力线的作用。 5、当股价从下上穿5日均线时，代表了在五天内买入的总体来说是获利的；当股票从上下穿5日均线时，代表了五天内买入的总体来说是处于亏损状态的。 6、“5日线下阳，寻机先减仓。”口诀意思是：股价某日收阳线，如果没有冲破5日均线，应该减仓卖出股票。如果股价调整的时间较长，空方能量接近尾声，在运用5日均线下的操作口诀时，又要考虑别的因素的影响力，口诀不能生搬硬套。
移动平均线又分短期
買／賣貨前諗一諗，分清股價强勢定弱勢
阿里巴巴（ 09988 ）傳被中國監管機構要求同創辦人馬雲徹底切割，又要剝離一啲同主要網上零售業務無關嘅資產，依家百天、五十天、二十天、十天MA線上至下排列，股價處於所有MA之下，現價係超弱勢。（資料圖片）
中國今年 GDP 增長目標係「超六」，市場對目標幾滿意，內銀建行（ 00939 ）依家十天、二十天、五十天、百天、二百五十天MA線上至下排列，股價處於所有MA之上，現價屬超強勢。（資料圖片）
1、定义
投资人除了当天的收盘价外，一般最为关切的莫过于大盘指数走势了，而最能代表大盘真正的走势的，就是移动平均线(MA，Moving Average)。投资人可利用移动平均线之间的转折点及交叉现象，研判大盘指数走势，作为买卖时机的参考。
短期移动平均线：一般以6日及10日作为短期的一周均价，为短线进出依据。当均线反转下跌时，应该卖出持股。
中期移动平均线：以30日或24日为月平均线，俗称月线；以72日代表一季的平均价及成本，俗称季线。月线可以预测股价未来变动方向，非常实用。反转就卖出。
长期移动平均线：多以200日及288日为准，称为年线，是主力、实户及作手参考的重要指标。反转就是卖出。
2、应用法则
葛兰碧八大法则(买卖股票的时机)：
以移动平均价位与当日价位之间的关系，作为判断行情的依据，是准备何时加码、何时减码的最佳利器，挼果能够应用这八大法则顺势操作，那么投资可以说是十拿九稳。
移动平均线从下降逐渐走平，而股价也自下方突破平均线时，是买进讯号。
平均线持续上扬，虽一度接近平均线或跌破平均线，当股价再度站上平均线时，是买进时机。
股价在平均在线，股价突然下跌，但未破平均线，当股价又再上升时，可以加码买进。
股价走势低于平均线，突然暴跌，远离平均线，乖离过大，股价很可能会再度趋向平均线弹升，也是买进讯号。
移动平均线上升后保持平行或下降，而股价由上往下切入时，是卖出讯号。
股价上升突破平均线，但马上回到平均线之下，而且平均线持续下跌时，是卖出讯号。
股价比平均线低，当股价上升，未达平均线即回跌的情况下，是卖出讯号。
股价直线上升，突然暴涨，正乖离过大，很可能会再下跌趋向平均线，为卖出时机。
3、特色
平稳：不会像日线大起大落，通常是缓慢的升降。
安定：MA通常在涨势明显后才会向上延伸；股价明显下降后才开始走下坡。但是，安定性越强，相对的，反应也较迟钝。
趋势：可以反应股价走向，具有趋势性质。
助涨助跌：当股价由下向上突破MA，MA则变为短期支撑线，当股价回跌至MA附近时，为买进时机。此为MA助涨的作用。反之，若向下突破，MA即有助跌的作用。
