Hello Alvin,

I use 5/30 MA crossovers on both the 5-minute and 1-minute charts for the FTSE and the DAX. To be honest, it doesn't really matter which parameters you use; just be consistent. The strategy is to enter on crosses on the 1-minute charts in the direction of the trend as defined on the 5-minute. Ten point stop maximum. Exit position on a reverse cross on the 1-minute chart.

Remember with a trend-following strategy, most trades will be losers. It's 10% of your trades that will make you the money and you have to positioned when they take off.

Hope it helps.

Regards,
Kevin

Hello Pat,

Obviously, the comments from Preston and Super are perfectly correct.

Have you considered dropping down a timeframe when using, say, your MA crossover system? For intraday trading, I use a five-minute MA cross as a setup and a one-minute MA cross for my entry  signal.. You could also try, say, a fifteen-minute MA cross to indicate the major trend, the reverse five-minute MA cross to identify a pullback and the one-minute MA cross to enter with the major trend.

I hate to say this but......... ..it works more often than it doesn't.

Hope it helps.

Regards,
Kevin

Hi,
Our old friends moving averages do a good job and are generally useful. However to improve them and their forecasting ability, is it possible to negate their larger than normal swings up and down ? A spike of more than X points or a percentage perhaps ? Perhaps there is a formula already out there somewhere ? Jurik may have done something along these lines.
Thanks
Pat
