Andrew,
An interesting bit of work...nice job! I have several trader friends
who are big fans of 3 MA's. I'm sure they'll find this useful.
A condition that I noticed while playing with this (using the
defaults)on a QQQ chart was a bit of whipsaw. I especially noticed it
on the downside when a close has exceeded all 3 MA's but the MA's
have not realigned. The earliest that I saw this was 4-22-04.
Something to consider is that if a close exceeds all 3 MA's would it
really matter if they were aligned.
Just a thought,
Preston
