>> If you chart a 9 period simple, and a 9 period exponential on the same price chart, the exponential very clearly
makes its turns sooner than the simple MA. If this is not showing thatthe exponential MA has less lag than the simple MA, what is it showing?
<<
The SMA has more "inertia" than the EMA. Consequently, it takes longer to respond to reversals. As the cycles speed up, SMA will lag further behind EMA. However, on straight trends (no cycles), the lags are the same.
