Invest and Trade Profitably with Jon Johnson

In reading the Q&A’s, you say you use a simple 50 day moving average, but from the reports it appears you are using exponential. Is there a reason?

We did switch to an exponential 50 day moving average over the last month as the Nasdaq was tracking truer to it then the simple 50 day moving average. While we are still keeping a simple 50 day moving average on the charts for another frame of reference, we will use the exponential version for now. This is another example of having to shift with the market. If the big institutions buy on the exponential 50 day moving average, that is what we will use.
