Lets find 3 SMA(simple moving average)

Market closed on say dates below(i.e closing price)
1 May at 5000
2 May at 3000
3 May at 4000
4 May at 5000

SO when u calculate SMA on 3 rd MAY, u will need 3 days closing which u have now as on dated 3rd may,(1,2,3may).

SMA(3) = close price of(may 1 + may 2 + may 3)/3(as 3 three SMA)
=5000+3000+4000/3 = .....


EMA is exponential, similar to SMA but more weighatage is given to recent closing CANDLES, that is more value is given in some way to 3rd May than 2nd May and so on.
Link mentioned above will know be more easy for u to understand.


IF u calculate 3 SMA on 4may, it will be,
SMA(3) = 3000+4000+5000/3
=......

Hope this will help u to get started.

Will Explain... SMA in this Post...& EMA in the next Post.

For 3 SMA add up the last 3 Close & Divide by 3
For 5 SMA add up the last 5 Close & Divide by 5
For 10 SMA add up the last 10 Close & Divide by 10
For 15 SMA add up the last 15 Close & Divide by 15

Example of 3 SMA

Add up the close of 17th, 16th & 13th

(5450 + 5489.30 + 5558.35) divide by 3
= 16477.65 divide by 3
= 5492.55
