Banco Macro (BMA) Just Overtook the 20-Day Moving Average
Banco Macro (BMA) is looking like an interesting pick from a technical perspective, as the company reached a key level of support. Recently, BMA crossed above the 20-day moving average, suggesting a short-term bullish trend.
The 20-day simple moving average is a well-liked trading tool because it provides a look back at a stock's price over a 20-day period. Additionally, short-term traders find this SMA very beneficial, as it smooths out short-term price trends and shows more trend reversal signals than longer-term moving averages.
Like other SMAs, if a stock's price is moving above the 20-day, the trend is considered positive. When the price falls below the moving average, it can signal a downward trend.
