Understanding EMA Trend Indicators š
EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) help traders smooth out price data, focusing on intermediate and long-term trends
In this example, the 50-day EMA tracks the average intermediate price of 50 days, while the 200-day EMA shows the average price over the last 200 days.
š In the chart above, the 50-day EMA (blue line) and the 200-day EMA (light blue line) rose steadily until the summer. Then, the 50-day EMA turned lower in August, followed by the 200-day EMA in September.
This led to a "Death Cross" when the 50-day EMA crossed below the 200-day EMA (red circle), indicating a bearish trend š
Conversely, a "Golden Cross" occurs when the 50-day EMA crosses above the 200-day EMA, signaling a potential bullish market š
āļø Use these indicators together with other indicators to confirm trends. For example, bearish EMAs combined with overbought RSI or MACD signals an upcoming strong bearish reversal.
