Where can I find a SMA or EMA chart for a particular stock?

[StockMarketStrategy]

@cjacobs537 You can use free sites like stockcharts or freestockcharts

Hi, Thanks for this great free tool! I have had some success. My main question: I'm using the 5 minute chart: Its giving different signals when I cross check with the 1 minute chart, and the order screen thumbnail. Which do I use, or just use one chart period and ignore the other?

[StockMarketStrategy]

@GaryFrankLewis ....if the entry on the lower time frame is still within the parameters in the higher time frame. Meaning: Uptrend on 5 min chart, pullback on 1 min chart. Pullback on 1 min chart should not have broken your trend lines or MAs or whatever tool you have used to determine the trend on the 5 min chart. Hope this helps

@GaryFrankLewis A lot of traders are confused of how to use multiple time frames. I believe it started from Dr. Elders book where he mentioned how you get one signal on one time frame and then wait for signal on the other time frame. I have never been able to successfully apply this theory to real trading as the 2nd signal almost always comes when the first signal is no longer valid. How we use multiple time frames is by analyzing the trend and then drop down and get entry on lower time frame..

i cant understand how trends are check with EMA or SMA

[StockMarketStrategy]

@khanpreston1 It is up to you how you determine trend. Some traders use the slope of EMA or SMA. Meaning if the EMA or SMA is sloping/trending up then the stock is in an uptrend. Other traders use a rule that says that if price is above the EMA/SMA then the trend is up. At Stock-market-strategy we use the slope to determine the trend. We also uses something called phases.
