Query about EMA's

New comment
 
Good morning, I wanted to make a query, to calculate with precision the best moving averages crossing,  Known to ma_method is more efficient or accurate between MODE_SMA, MODE_EMA, MODE_SMMA or MODE_LWMA?, What is more efficient applied_price between PRICE_CLOSE, PRICE_OPEN, PRICE_HIGH, PRICE_LOW, PRICE_MEDIAN, PRICE_TYPICAL or PRICE_WEIGHTED? and bars used for the calculation?. Thank you.
 
  1. Define Best
  2. efficient or accurate. all essentially equal (on any machine running mql4)
  3. median/typical/weighted all require additional addition(s) than using an exact OHLC. all essentially equal (on any machine running mql4)
  4. SMMA(x) == EMA(2X-1)
 
I'd really like to know if anyone knows the best way to open an order when two moving averages cross, which parameters to use ... , Thanks
 
Question is too subjective/vague, cannot compute.... :)

You use the parameters needed by OrderSend()
