In “Moving Average Bands” (part 1, July 2021 issue) and “Moving Average Band Width” (part 2, August 2021 issue), author Vitali Apirine explains how moving average bands (MAB) can be used as a trend-following indicator by displaying the movement of a shorter-term moving average in relation to the movement of a longer-term moving average. The distance between the bands will widen as volatility increases and will narrow as volatility decreases.

Moving Average Bands [CC]The Moving Average Bands were created by Vitali Apirine (Stocks and Commodities July 2021 pg 16) and this is a very handy trend following indicator that will give you the overall trend of the underlying stock. As the bands rise then the stock is in an uptrend and as they fall then it is a downtrend. If the bands stay flat then it is a sideways and/or choppy market. I did change the middle band from what he originally authored because I believe this gives more accurate buy and sell signals so keep that in mind. Feel free to use a different moving average than the original exponential moving average in the formula. As always buy when the indicator lines turn green and sell when they turn red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!
