I just want to ask if anyone knows (or has an opinion) as to wether it matters if you use EMA or SMA on Chick's system?

Now I’ve got time to workout my FX strategy for intra day & it’s looking good…
Christrader said:Hello everyone,
I just wanted to say I'm a proud new member here. I've used many boards over the years and I can safely say that this is the most professional and courteous board I've ever encountered. I'm new to futures trading and I'm devouring every resource I can find. Like all of you I've ran into useless material but Mr. Goslin's book is a true guiding light on this new path I'm on. I've read Trader Vic, Nicolas Darvas, Market Wizards and I'm now swimming in TA and seeing the "trend picture" more clearly. I had the honor to visit with Mr. Goslin on the phone Monday (July 4) and he was very encouraging. I plan on following his strategies in the near future, once I have a firm grasp of the indicators he advocates. I do have a question for all of you though -
Is there an easy program out there to key in the numbers that Chick mentions? I'm using Strategy Runner from globalfutures.com and it has MACD and Momentum indicators within the program - is this enough?
Thanks again!
Chris
JFK said:Spot on chump. Chick mentions any reliable indicator will work. Use a combination of different style indicators & whatever your comfortable with. Follow Chick’s 3 simple rules & techniques & it works.
I’ve found the best way is to keep it simple with indicators that I know how/what they are made up, add in some fundamentals. Do some back testing, paper trade it for a while. Then, once your confident that you’ve chosen the right method that fits your time frame, go for it.

JFK said:Hi Jyde,
About 4 or 5 weeks. I never traded or got too involved with Chick’s method of using the SMR charts (having said that the last part of the book with all the SMR examples is worth another read). I already new my current method was working, just needed extra tweaks & a different approach with some fresh ideas. Chick’s book was an enormously help.
