ABSTRACT: This paper attempts to develop strategies that enable portfolio managers to improve market timing by learning to recognize leading indications of forthcoming changes. The aim of this study is the testing‚ in a Mutual Fund series‚ of the predicting ability of a popular technical exchange tool‚ the Moving Average Rule. A short-term and a long-term moving average are used for the creation of “buy” and “sell” signals of mutual funds. 2891 predictions were made‚ for the same time-series
