FXSurf, questions for you:

Have you tried using or thought about using these EMA values: 32, 64, 96.

32x2 is 64 and 32x3 is 96.

These values measure the average of
- 8, 16, and 24 hours on the M15
- 1, 2.67 and 4 days on the H1
- 4, 10.67, and 16 days on the H4
- 24, 64, and 96 days on the D1

Mathematically, they seem more cohesive to use, so I was just wondering if you're using the values you are now due to mass psychology (more traders use them than the ones I mentioned), and/or they worked better in testing, etc.

In addition to these I use a 16, half the value of the 32 and about the fastest I like them.

I also use the NonLag MA for the responsiveness and slope color change, do you use EMAs for more solid crossovers?

You may find this indicator handy for your analysis.

You could use whatever ones you prefer. The sweet spot for me has been simplified using the 25 and 200 EMA on the daily and hourly.

Again im looking for a particular footprint or pattern that is occurring when price is setting up for a reversal. All three WT's at the top/bottom and and the hourly WT crossing over the 4H.

Thank you, FXSurf. So white EMA is 25 and orange is 200, right? But what about thick white MA?
