FWIW: EMA vs SMA

There is a fairly close correspondence between an EMA and an SMA given by: alpha = 2/(n + 1) where n is the number of periods in your SMA and alpha (no greek letters in SI) is your smoothing parameter in an EMA. Not exact correspondence, because the EMA is cumulative, but close.

Chris,

That's what it seemed like to me also; some stocks like the emov some like the smov at times so seems like it's personal preference.

I saw in a few of your posts that you're expecting a correction or pull-back here soon. I've been cruising the charts looking for some patterns and I have noticed dbl tops and H&S patterns; not too many upward chart patterns.

Sean
