A system for swing trading the market (see below), using the 5 day and 13 day exponential moving averages.
It's extremely simple - you buy when the 5 day EMA (blue line) crosses above the 13 day EMA (red line), and vice versa for selling/shorting. As long as the blue line is on top you stay long, and when the red line is on top you stay out or stay short.
It appears to work well, though if the market gets choppy you may have to get in and out a couple times before the trend is established. This looks a lot easier than trying to trade individual stocks and chart patterns -
