Summary/Abstract: In this paper, we propose and recommend a new combined moving average trading rule based on max-min strategy. It outperforms the traditional simple moving average trading rules for Buy and Sell-day returns by a factor of 10 to 20 in the DJIA, the NASDAQ, and the S&P. It also outperforms the old traditional combined moving average trading rule based on max-max strategy proposed by Arnold and Rahfeldt in 2008 for Sell-day returns by a factor of 10 to 20 in the DJIA, the NASDAQ, and the S&P.
