🚨 Trading Indicators Made Simple (Part 3)
👉Let’s talk about the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) — one of the most powerful tools traders use to spot trend direction and momentum! ⚡
📊 What is EMA?
The EMA is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices.
That means it reacts faster to market changes than the Simple MA — perfect for identifying short-term trend shifts early.
💡 Commonly Used EMAs:
EMA 9 / EMA 10: Used by scalpers & short-term traders to catch quick momentum.
EMA 20 / EMA 21: Tracks short-term trend strength (often used on 1H & 4H charts).
EMA 50: Used to spot medium-term trends or corrections.
EMA 100 & EMA 200: Long-term trend guides — when price is above, the market is in a strong uptrend.
📈 Why Traders Use EMAs:
✅ Helps identify trend direction quickly
✅ Acts as dynamic support or resistance
✅ Useful for timing entries & exits in trending markets
