{
|type="{}"}
Trading signals are given when { price } crosses the { moving average } line.

{
|type="{}"}
Fast moving averages are useful for { short } term trading, but yield many { whipsaws }.

{
|type="{}"}
Slow moving averages give fewer { false } signals, but the signals are '{ late }'.

{
|type="{}"}
{ Filters } are useful in sorting out { false } signals.

{
|type="{}"}
Whether the moving average is { sloping } up or down defines the direction of the { trend } and is an excellent { filter }.

{
|type="{}"}
In the { two } moving average approach, a { fast } moving average is used to replace price -- signals are more clear cut.

{
|type="{}"}
{ Three } moving averages are used to produce a system with { three } modes -- long, short, and { of out the market }.

{
|type="{}"}
With { three } moving averages, all { three } lines must be in { long } or short configurations to be in the market. When they are not, we do not trade.

{
|type="{}"}
{ Parabolic } is a stop-and-reverse system.

{
|type="{}"}
It generates stop levels that { accelerate } as a { trend } develops.

{
|type="{}"}
Use it only in { trending } markets.

{
|type="{}"}
{ Directional movement } is the larger part of { today }'s range above or below { yesterday }'s range.

{
|type="{}"}
{ True } range is the difference between today's high and low, or yesterday's close and today's high or low if today's range is outside yesterday's range.

{
|type="{}"}
{ Directional indicator } is average directional movement as a percentage of true range.

{
|type="{}"}
{ Average } directional movement { index } is an average of the net directionality of movement, ie. how directional the market is on balance.

{
|type="{}"}
Go { long } when +DI crosses from below to to above -DI and go { short } when -DI crosses from below to above +DI. The best signals are when { ADX } turns up from below both lines.

{
|type="{}"}
Take profits when { ADX } turns down from above both lines.

{
|type="{}"}
Close { long } when +DI crosses from above to below -DI and close { short } when -DI crosses from above to below +DI.

{
|type="{}"}
Directional movement can be used to determine if a market is { trending }.

{
|type="{}"}
As a trend { filter }, use trend following indicators when ASX is above { 25 }.
