Moving Average Crossover Strategy Shows 6.9% Annual Return in Backtest
The moving average crossover approach generates mechanical buy or sell signals when a fast and a slow average intersect. Common pairings include 9/21 EMA for short‑term trades, 20/50 SMA for swing trades, and the classic 50/200 SMA Golden Cross for long‑term trends. Backtests of the Golden Cross from 1960 to present delivered a 6.9% annual return.

The decline reflects heightened regional geopolitical risk and investor caution.

YEN - 12 days down on extended run - a close above the 5 SMA can set up a short sale. https://t.co/V3KhPE1bpS
$ had quite the buying climax range expansion outside KC (Keltner Channel) which I posted in the morning. It already sold down into Asia opening. Wed. it may fill out the tail. https://t.co/SASbX9Ehf1
Copper: Buy Day on ROC... this market tends to have best play in evening when Asia opens. https://t.co/FzKo8M3xSH
GC - Pinball Buy on close (green bar on right is start of evening session so shows initial up. ) https://t.co/aIGtwW0Ce0

Software up more than 1% today. @FrankCappelleri shared this potentially bullish pattern this morning. So far, so good. https://t.co/qlwNHx7eF2
Odd stat of the day: the $SPX has closed ABOVE its intra-day midpoint in 11/12 days. It's down a net 50 bps over that time span.
#OTD 2020... back when I had a real job and only TOS ... 10yr breaks 1% for the first time https://t.co/CyW5CAAfCa
The "Fog of War" hit the tape today. 🌫️ $SPX salvaged support at 6800 after a brutal open, but the $VIX spiking to 28 is a major red flag. I’m also honoring the late legend John Murphy and applying...
$SPY - The part that's tough for me is the defensive tilt that's taken place this year in the S&P 500. It's easier to "ignore" these days as "event driven" etc. when that isn't the case but with $XLK, $XLF,...
GS Europe: Europe has re-rated in recent years Sectors with high US exposure and a low beta to the market should be mostly immune to recent shocks https://t.co/g2Fd3kpcA5
$VXUS international ETF clean hold on 20sma weekly, again, clean line in sand for your radar and natural stop for swings under that line. https://t.co/RWEeeRI0sD
Software sold off first, so stands to reason it would try to bottom first. Solid action around the 200sma-- very clear line in sand for medium term swings. $IGV https://t.co/zcHdivFd3y
Interesting spot $VGK (Europe) -- solid reversal on clean support. 84 line in sand. https://t.co/YeH5D1pF0E
Charts can always morph, but it looks to me that the Platinum party is about to be interrupted by a head and shoulders pattern. I am not allowing replies on this because I have no interest in reading what you...
Rooting for the immediate v shaped recovery in KOSPI/Nikkei but, in my experience, violent deleveraging events are seldom limited to a single session. Held off on any aggressive dip buying today.
GS: While Europe remains on a discount to the US, this discount has narrowed https://t.co/MWh0XnVJBZ
Gasoline prices... remember the March-April RBOB contract roll was +25 cents on its own https://t.co/WAOPFvCQdz
$CRCL (per request) I honestly can't decide if this is a dead cat bounce in a downtrend or the start of a new bull trend. Wish I had a better read. https://t.co/PD7HPiHYFV
#FTSE250 big Down Candle. RSI 44 bit off Neutral. Could be lining up 13/21 day EMA Bear Cross. Closed below Bottom Bollinger Band which is unstable.
$DG (per request) This chart is a great example of good analysis and bad execution. I sold way too early. Up 50% from that support. Noted. Lesson learned. https://t.co/3gkMNvaqn7
$FCX (per request) Beautiful chart. Clean price action. Measured upside target is closer to $80 https://t.co/w3xHEH085E
Financials rally back to the underbelly of the 2024 and 2025 1H pivot. So far it’s acting like a magnet... $XLF https://t.co/jXBzQnKMxZ
$HYPE (per request) Followed through on the mini spring I posted earlier. But now just struggling with that pesky 99smma resistance. not a good sign if it can't break https://t.co/pa5x3GyItL
BofA: We forecast a below-consensus Feb NFP print of 35k (private: 45k). The u-rate should remain at 4.3% Fed response: wait and watch stance under Powell https://t.co/qQ28IUZLsk
$OKLO (per request) Doesn't look great but doesn't look terrible locally. Mostly just hanging in the middle of nowhere. Has an untapped support below. I'd be more interested in buying the yellow line reclaim if it does something like this. https://t.co/1Wtg9vINKt
$PSX (per request) Looks like a nice base breakout and should see continuation. Levels noted in chart. One more resistance needed to take out for more price discovery. https://t.co/YmKPMsfiHV
$NVO (per request) Has lost all monthly and weekly support and just broke down from a harsh range. Looks like a continuation pattern to the downside unfortunately. Needs to reclaim this range as a starter for any bullish scenario. https://t.co/G49aFKlG3c
We are nearing oil's most bullish time of year. $CL_F $USO $WTIC More from me on @stockcharts: https://t.co/2c4CuouCWe https://t.co/o1k2jBw7MM
