Moving Averages (MAs)

Moving Averages help traders cut through the noise, spot trends, and make smarter decisions

Types of MAs:

🟠SMA (Simple MA): A smooth line showing the average price over a set period
🟠EMA (Exponential MA): Reacts faster to recent price changes, which is great for short-term trading

Popular MA Periods:

➡️ 9 & 14: Short-term for quick signals and momentum trading
➡️ 50: Medium-term trend direction
➡️ 100 & 200: Long-term trends, widely followed by institutions

Why Use MAs?

📍 Trend Detector: Price above the MA? Uptrend! Below? Downtrend!
📍 Dynamic Support/Resistance: MAs often act like invisible barriers.
📍 Crossovers: When a short MA crosses a longer one, it can signal buy/sell opportunities
