I think MA has delay . i want to use price movement directly and reduce spikes. so the price change should be spotted with no delay. my goal is to bundle them all over a tick chart and make a scalping EA.
It sounds like you are following someones advise on this.. use your own eyes.
Look at the spikes in price.... then look at at the highs on the staircase.... then look at the highs on the MA (blue).
Which one is more delayed?
(pause)...
Clearly the staircase more (even) more delayed then the MA. The main difference between them is that the staircase exaggerates the highs and low slightly, because it uses highs and lows whereas the MA will use close value (probably).
Just think about it for a second... it uses the highest high, and the lowest low.... does it really remove spikes from the equation....?
