yeah the EMA vs SMS is always a debate. Lot's of folks use EMA's these days, I use them for the MA ribbons and intra day time frames. Otherwise my general thought is that the 200 day and 50 day SMA's have been so widely followed for many years that I tend to use those on the daily time frames over the EMA's. For smaller time frames, 2hr, 60 min, 15 etc, and for weekly I use EMA's, though the 200 week SMA tends to be important
