Basics of the moving average:

It takes average of the price for the duration we want.

So 10 days moving average means an average price of 10 days closing price.

Common types of Moving Average:
Simple, Exponential, Weighted.

Use only one type in your trading setup.

Different uses:

1โƒฃ Moving Average Crossovers:

Common strategy used by positional traders and investor in finding multibagger or good returns stocks.

Common crossover used is for 50 & 200 Moving Average.

Also, this is called as "๐—š๐—ผ๐—น๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐—–๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ"

In this buy signal is initiated when lower MA (50 EMA) crosses above higher MA (200 EMA).
And exit or sell signal is intiated when lower MA (50 EMA) crosses below higher MA (200 EMA).

4/10
Let's see an example:
Pidilite Industries

Buying Price was 56 in 2009 and CMP is 2462 and still there is no selling signal.

44 times Multibagger or 4300% returns.

In lower time frame, it will give more whipsaw and more number of trades.

5/10
Setup looks easy, but is not that easy.

Sometimes stock stays in consolidation and it gives frequent buy and sell signal as seen in Airtel.

One way to avoid this noise is to use price action and look for the breakouts and then trade.

2โƒฃ Support or Resistance

Moving averages can act as support or resistance to stocks.

Let's look at an example where it acted as a support.

In #IEX chart, 100 Days EMA acted as a support multiple times.
Also, a live trade was shared on IEX:

7/10
Let's look at an example where it acted as a Resistance.

Suzlon:

Stock faced resistance at 100 days EMA and it kept going down after EMA level.

Stock went down from 105 to 20 in two years.

3โƒฃ Finally Moving Average can be used as a Stoplosses.

~ For a buyer, if price closes below a crucial moving average, then buy position is closed in stocks.

~ For a seller, if price closes above a crucial moving average, then short position is closed in stocks.

9/10
I hope everyone got a taste of how moving average can be used.

These are not a universal rules one must follow. One can create their rule or follow someone else rules.

Only important thing is one must follow a fix rule instead of tweaking or changing setup frequently.

More from Yash Mehta

As per SEBI report, 89% F&O traders are not able to earn profits in the market. There can be multiple reasons to it.

Sharing SIMPLE Index Option Selling Strategies that I personally use and less effort is required.

A course worth Rs 50K for FREE.

Last strategy is my favourite.

1/ Short Straddle/Iron Condor for Expiry (Famous 916 Strategy):

Just create a Short Straddle/Iron Condor 100 points away in Nifty on expiry day.

For eg. if Nifty Spot is at 17610, then short 17700 CE and 17500 PE.

Iron Condor can be taken by buying 300 points away hedge.

Exit Strategy:
1. Exit all the Position if any of the options become ATM or near to that. For this, an alert at upper and lower levels can be placed.

2. If the above condition is not executed, then close the position manually by 3:15 PM.

For example: In Last Expiry, we have taken below Short Straddle Trade and same was shared live.

Stoploss was kept as 17450/17750 after considering the premium that we collected from


For Banknifty, short straddle can be created for 250/300 points away and for Finnifty 100 points away.

Trading these two indices is bit difficult as they are very volatile and can give wild swings during intraday and especially on expiry days.
