Not sure if there is any significant advantages, just for shorter MAs I use EMAs and for longer I use SMAs. EMA's will react quicker based on the formula, so that is the reason I use them in shorter time frames. I know many spoo traders that scalpe 1-2pts based on the 1min20EMA...

Longer MAs don't react as fast just because they take more time to be effected...

The numbers I use have been back tested so that is why I use them.
