I watch 4 different time frame charts. Weekly, Daily, Hourly, and 15-minute. Occasionally, for clarification on something, I'll look at the monthly or 5 minute charts. I use the same moving averages on all of my charts. I watch the 200 & 50 day simple MA because the rest of the world makes decisions based on them but, in my opinion, the most important moving averages are the 10 day (I prefer 10.19 EMA), 20 day (I use 20.38 EMA) and my favorite is the 84 day EMA. I use the same settings for moving averages on all 4 charts. If you have seen me post charts with other settings, they were old charts that I failed to update. My moving average calculations are based upon 252 trading days in a year (84 is 1/3 of that because everything happens in threes). I use a 20.38 EMA and 10.19 EMA because there are 12.3682662 lunar cycles in year and I know that the moon does affect trading decisions So when you divide the number of trading days by the number of lunar cycles you get 20.374 and I round that up to 20.38 so that I can use 10.19 to get one half the lunar cycle. I have used other numbers but, that's because the number of trading day in a year can change. Recently I learned that in the last 4 years there were exactly 252 trading days each year on the NASDAQ and the mostly trade there so, from now on, I intend to use the same numbers to keep all my charts consistent and I won't change that unless the number of trading days is permanently changed. I hope that answers your question. You will also notice that I use 20.38 or 10.19 in my indicator calculations as well.
