The data is monthly data for the LQ45 index in the 2017-2021 period, so a total of 60 observations were obtained. Data analysis includes descriptive statistics and the Kruskal Wallis test. The test results show that there is no significant difference between the performance of the moving average indicator and the parabolic sar indicator.
