How to determine stock trend(cycle)?

[singhboy]

first of all keep ur trading system simple, 2ndly use what most ppl use ( big traders not retailers ), if sum system is succesful means most big market participant r following it thats why it works. Now among all moving avgs for medium to short term 20 SMA, 20 ema, 50 sma, 50ema works most accurately. Moving avgs r lagging if u use them alone without any other indicators, trendlines, or horizontal lines used as supp or resistance. And for intraday trading 1 day tick charts never work. U must use 5 day chart for intraday trading, n use time periods 5 or 15 mint. Do experiment on it, this works

Are there other ways to determine stock cycles ? I am not intraday trader. So MA is laggy for me . What can you offer for EOD trades?
