NN (AI) vs. Optimizing (Curve Fitting)

 

I'm new to the conceptual application of NN. Can one of you experienced gurus tell me what the major differences be if - I am training a NN to work with Moving Averages vs. Curve Fitting MA's to the same historical data?

I am very new to this, and unfortunately I'm just not seeing the major applicable differences between the two. Please help!

Have a look at this

It is worth a rewrite using your own trading style.The idea is to design a EA that will think and make decisions wheras ma systems are based on past market conditions and have specifif mas criterias and decisons written in advance

MAS form a small part of the thinking process.
