Moving Average Commodities Trading Technical Analysis and Moving Average Trading Signals
An technical indicator which calculates the average value of commodity prices (or any specified data series) over a pre determined period of time.
The only significant difference between the various types of MAs is the weight assigned to the most recent data. Simple moving averages apply equal weight to the commodity prices. Exponential & weighted averages apply more weight to recent commodity prices.
Interpretation
The most popular method of analyzing the Moving Average is to compare the relationship between the Moving Average of the commodity price with the commodity price itself. A buy signal is generated when price rises above its Moving Average and a sell signal is generated when price falls below its MA.
