Michel:
Try them out, there is no hard and fast rule. While I use exponential
moving averages most ot the time; sometimes I find that one of the other
available moving averages or a combination of different kinds of moving
averages is helpful. This kind of mxing of moving average types is sort of
similar to an macd.
