Predicting a crossover or moving average for next bar
Mike: about those different moving average types ... lol
I think I'll go play with that 'under-utilized phenomenon' ... RICHARD's 'predictive' algo is about to be downloaded ... let's see if aggressive or conservative can also be predicted
I can't wrap my head around this. So lets say we want the close[0] where a 200 SMA will Cross the 50 SMA one bar (Period) ahead of time. Couldn't we just set them equal to each other using:
X = Close Needed
A = SUM of prior 199 Closes
B = SUM of prior 49 Closes
(A + X) / 200 = (B + X) / 50
Solve for X or (New Close)
X = ( A - 4B ) / 3
***Or is this really bad algebra? What am I doing wrong, or is this the wrong approach?
