Smooth out the noise. Learn how to use the 50, 100, and 200 EMA to identify the dominant trend and dynamic support.

Moving averages smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price. We focus on Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), which give more weight to recent prices. The 200 EMA on the Daily chart is the 'ultimate line in the sand' for institutional traders—if price is above it, the macro trend is bullish.
