Backtesting Moving Average Performance

The two most popular moving average periods are 50 days and 200 days. I would also venture a guess that simple moving averages are used more than exponential moving averages. Taken together, the S&P 500 is the most widely followed index, and the 50-day and 200-day SMAs are the most widely used moving averages. It seems that the S&P 500 with these two moving averages is important just because so many pundits follow this combination. It kind of becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Let's look at some backtest result to see just how well this moving average pair works.
