#3 Which is the best Moving Average to trade with? 

Last Updated: July 31, 2019

By Rayner Teo

This week I’ve got a question by Vinayak who asked…

“Which is the best moving average to use?”

And I’m sure many of you want to know the answer as well.

But here’s the thing:

There isn’t a best moving average out there.

Why?

Because the word best is subjective.  You can use a moving average to act as a trend filter, to identify areas of value, to set your stop loss, and etc.

So, what’s your purpose of using a moving average indicator?

Once you can answer that question… then maybe you can find a moving average parameter that suits your trading approach.

Make sense?

Good.

So in today’s episode, you’ll learn:

  • How to find the best moving average for your trading approach
  • How to use moving average to identify areas of value
  • How to use moving average as a trend filter so you can trade with the trend

PLUS…

The truth behind moving average crossover — does it really work?  It’s probably not what you think.

Then go read this post because it will teach you how to use moving average like a pro.
