Trading Short Term and Long-Term Price Period of MA

A trader can select to adjust the price bars periods used to calculate the moving average MA.

If a trader uses short price periods then the Moving Average will react faster to the changes in price.

For example illustration if a xauusd trader uses the 7 intra-day trading moving average then, the moving average indicator will react to the price change much faster than a 14 day or 21 intraday trading MA would. However, using short time price bars periods to calculate the MA may result in the technical technical indicator giving false signals (whipsaw signals).

If another trader uses longer chart timeframe periods then the Moving Average will react to the price change much slower.
