How to Use the EMA Indicator for Trading
Introduction
Indicators are essential in trading, and the EMA indicator is one of the most crucial indicators when it comes to trading. This video will discuss the settings and usage of the EMA indicator and how to use it for buy or sell signals.
Setting Up the EMA Indicator
To set up the EMA indicator, you need to go to the indicators section and type in “EMA.” Select the very first option and add it to your chart. The first setting should be 20 EMA, the second 50, the third 100, and the fourth 200 EMA. For the visibility, set the 20 EMA to white, 50 EMA to yellow, and 200 EMA to red.
Using the EMA Indicator for Confirmation
Although you should not trade over the indicators, they are useful for confirmation purposes. For instance, on the four-hour time frame, a dead cross occurs when the 200 EMA crosses the 50 EMA. This is a sell signal. Conversely, when the 50 EMA crosses the 200 EMA, it’s a Golden Cross, indicating a buy signal.
Support and Resistance Levels
The EMA indicator can also be used for support and resistance levels. For example, the 20 EMA can act as support, while the 50 EMA can act as resistance. If the candles fail to cross the 50 EMA, your next resistance level will be the 100 EMA. If you manage to move over the 100 EMA, the next resistance level will be the 200 EMA.
Conclusion
As a trader, you must consider the EMA indicator as one of the most important indicators. You can use it for support and resistance levels as well as confirmation signals.
