Moving Average Technical Analysis & MA Signals
An indicator that calculates the average value of prices (or any specified data sequence) over a pre determined period of time.
The only significant difference between the various types of Moving Averages is the weight allocated to the most recent data. Simple MAs apply equal weight to the prices. Exponential & weighted averages apply more weight to recent prices.
Explanation
The most popular method of interpreting the Moving Average is to compare the relationship between the MA of the price with the price itself. A buy signal gets generated when the price rises above its Moving Average and a sell signal gets generated when price falls below its Moving Average.
Moving Average Indicator

The combinations of conditions for these types of systems are almost limitless.
