The Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA) is a technical indicator that identifies changing trends, breakouts and trading opportunities in the price of an asset by combining two groups of moving averages (MA) with different time frames.
GMMA consists of a group of short-term moving averages and a group of long-term moving averages, each of which contains six moving averages, 12 in total, and is superimposed on the price chart of the asset.
Short-term moving averages are usually set for 3, 5, 8, 10, 12 and 15 periods. Long-term moving averages are usually set at 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 60.
When the short-term group of moving averages moves above the long-term group, it indicates that an uptrend in the price of an asset may be emerging.
Conversely, when the short-term group falls below the long-term group of moving averages, a downtrend in the asset price can begin.
