    Shabbir, I started learning technical analysis inspired through you.

    However I do not understand how do I detect false signals generated through either MACD or Moving averages. ex. I go long based on MACD signal cross however just next or in couple of day it start going down.

    Can you please explain how should we avoid this? so 90% of our long position would be correct?

    When it is false, you would be saved by stop loss.

    Better way that I prefer is support and resistance and when support is cracked then I am out no matter what. In false break out / break down as well
