SPY/UDN Weekly Chart - someone showed

    SPY/UDN Weekly Chart - someone showed me this a year ago. I have been following it and have decided I like it. It's very simple: buy signal when the ema(1) crosses above the ema(3) and vice versa. There are some whipsaws, but on the whole it's pretty clean.

    More noodles. Thanks for sharing that idea! I tweaked it a bit. Hope the chart is viewable...........

    I used a smoother version of the SPY/UDN weekly close price (not displayed) as:  ZL = 2*FAVG8 - AVG8
    That's 2 times a weighted average of 8 and subtracted an average 8.

    NOTES:
    1. I don't know if this can be done in Stockcharts. I used TC2000.
    2. It's just an indicator, not a system.
    3. It will not do well during a consolidation.
    4. The bottom indicator shows when the smoothed RS line (ZL) was > EXP3

    Wow, I like that!  I agree

    I suggest with anything like

    I suggest with anything like that - during trending times use a whipsaw confirmation filter to filter out the noise - then don't use it to confirm a new entry after a zig zag abc pullback has occurred

    interesting- what is the spy/udn ?  And do you monitor the 1 & 3 Ema exclusively for that symbol ?

    Thanks

    Udon is a very nice Japanese soup that I highly recommend. UDN is a dollar index bearish fund. Yes, I have not experimented beyond the parameters given to me - the 1 and 3 ema crosses
