I found this episode on Moving

I found this episode on Moving Averages very helpful — the explanations of SMA, EMA, and how MA reflects the market’s “average holding cost” made the concepts much easier to apply. The points on slope and inflection also gave me a clearer way to judge trend strength beyond basic crossovers.

In practice, I use the 200-day SMA for long-term trend direction, while EMAs like the 20 and 50 help me react faster in shorter timeframes. They give earlier signals, but I stay cautious during sideways markets to avoid whipsaws.

The AMD divergence example was a good reminder that price alone can mislead, and confirming MA signals with RSI or volume is essential. Looking forward to seeing everyone’s charts and sharing more insights in the event!
