Text correction: EMA or MA?

Beginner Questions
1

Hi,

  1. In this lesson it says:

    “Each group contains six MAs.”

    “During a strong uptrend, when the short-term MAs move back toward the longer-term MAs, but do NOT cross, and then start to move back higher, this signals another continuation of the bullish trend and triggers a buy signal.”

    “During a strong downtrend, when the short-term MAs move back toward the longer-term MAs, but do NOT cross, and then start to move lower, this signals a continuation of the bearish trend and triggers a sell signal.”

  2. Question:

    Instead of all “MAs”, it should be all “EMAs” ?

Thank you.

It’s because there are differing forms of MAs e.g. MA, SMA , EMA etc. Just look at the indicator construction when you open any MA.
