Kids are treasures at that age, take advantage of each minute.

The present variable MA uses Chande's CMO for it volatility variable. As set up it gives terrible reads at the higher period settings. I prefer the VHF setting as found in the "hidden" VMA. It doesn't lag as much in MAs above 16 periods. The TS is very fast, so slow it a bit with a horz shift to right.

Short term = 8 periods, mid term= 34 periods, long term = 89. MAs are a final sell or buy point with me. I use tons of indicators, but for a simple method of trading you can't beat a good MA system. So for those that believe in K.I.S.S., you can't beat a fast MA that tracks price in keeping with your trading perspectives. When you decide the fit, you don't want to be in a trade that Price has broke in wrong direction thru your MA. Other indicators might take you out before but don't fight a good MA signal.

Thanks for kind words in private mail. I ignore noise and understand where it comes from, it is like spam, only the naive believe it.
